Jira granular recovery enables you to restore selected Jira items such as issues, attachments, or configuration elements, giving you precise control over what is brought back without affecting the rest of your space data.

Recovery process

circle-info

When restoring Jira automation rules associated with an assets schema (i.e., during a granular restore to another organization or a disaster recovery restore where the target organization already contains assets), a different assets schema may be attached to the restored rule component. This behavior is the same as when rules are manually imported through the Jira UI.

Connections to external services (i.e., Google Drive) are not restored in automation components when restoring data in disaster recovery mode or to another organization.
