Copying a workflow between systems
Sometimes, it is useful to create a workflow in a test system and then copy it into a production system. To do this:
In the test system, export the workflow to XML by clicking the XML link next to the workflow in the list shown on the View Workflows page and save the output into a file.
In the production system, import the file via the 'import a workflow from XML' link as described above.
(minus) When importing an XML workflow into JIRA:
JIRA's XML workflow definitions contain references to JIRA meta attributes. For example, the id of the linked JIRA status of each workflow step is stored as a 'jira.status.id' meta attribute in the step's definition. Therefore, when manually creating workflows in XML, please ensure that all referenced external entities exist before you import the workflow into JIRA.
(minus) When copying a workflow between systems:
Please note that conditions, validators and post functions can have parameters that might be valid in one system and not in another. For example, different systems might contain different sets of values ​​for the 'Resolution' field. This would be a problem if the 'Update Issue Field' post function is used to set the 'Resolution'
