Edit Requirement ↔ Test Link
The Issue Link used for Requirement Coverage is slightly different between Xray Cloud and Xray Server/DC. To ensure that Xray Cloud will recognise these links, the Issue Link type must be edited on Server/DC to match the link used by Xray Cloud:

The preflight checks feature was created on Xray app to help customers understand what must be migrated based on the project that they want to migrate.

Xray Cloud also provides a page on the app administration section with all the migration plans in progress and done. Here the Jira administrator could see the history of migration and the ongoing migration plans. Learn more about this here.
Unsuccessful Migrations
If the Xray migration is not successful during the Jira cloud migration plan, we highly recommend trying it again. Before trying again, make sure the cloud project is removed. If the issue persists, please contact our support in order to get help.
