Successful data migration is the result of your choices. So, if you consider migrating your GitHub projects and repositories, try out Project Management Migration Service for your future data export. Here are the reasons why:
- Data migration service eliminates redundant manual work.
- Intuitive design makes the setting-up process easier and faster.
- An out-of-the-box field mapping helps you find your data after GitHub export.
What Records Can You Migrate from GitHub?
You can export the following records from your GitHub repository:
- Project lists (task lists)
- Tasks along with comments and tags
- “Completed at”, “Created at”, and “Updated” dates of tasks
- Users
Note: Only tasks from one column migrate during the demo migration of projects. When you export cards that aren’t linked to issues, their name adds to the description field. Cards migrate with the status “Open” and default assign.
Hence, if you need to migrate specific GitHub records, you can customize your data export. Contact our representatives to learn details.
