- Keep in mind, that you cannot use bypass like
localhostorlocaltest.me
Target Token
- Token for the target instance: you can create a token for a different, through the following URL: Atlassian account - API Tokens. You can read more about Atlassian token on the documentation page: Manage API tokens for your Atlassian account | Atlassian Support.
- After creating a token, just copy and paste it into the corresponding “Target Token“ field.

- Grant the plugin secure, scoped access to your instance/site. You’ll be asked to choose a site and approve the requested permissions.
After filling in the necessary information, click the **Save target instance **button to add the instance to the list.
The Insight Assets Backup & Migration app must be installed and must have an active license (trial or paid) on the target instance, unless it is not a sandbox instance of the current connection, the app has already been paid on the main instance and a free app can be installed on the sandbox.
After the instance is added, you can see and modify it from the List of target instances.
