Add New Target Instance

After initial setup, you can do the following actions on the current connection, by clicking the three dots after Sync schemas button:

  • Add new target instance
  • See List of target instances
  • Edit configuration
  • Delete Connection

Here you can add a Cloud target instance, where you can later migrate the backed-up schemas. To add the target instance:

  1. Connection name

    • To easily identify the instance while migrating the schemas
  2. Target Email

    1. Fill in the email related to the Atlassian account that will be used to access the data in Assets (Insight) for a target instance (the user should have a valid agent license!)
  3. Target WorkspadeID

    1. Fill in the ID of the Assets (Insight) workspace you want to restore the backup to. The Workspace ID can be found on the following link: [Page not accessible (ID: 661684918)]. The Jira Service Management REST API uses the workspace ID to identify your individual instance of Assets (Insight), it is an alphanumeric string with the following sample appearance: 3b3b70g5-66f8-3c01-a2d7-e5bbf2584dc3.
  4. Target Instance URL

    1. URL of target instance: https://[yourcloud].atlassian.net
    2. Make sure to include “https://“ in the URL, otherwise you will not be able to save the instance - the corresponding error message will be shown along the field:
    3. You also won’t be able to save the URL if you indicate https:// but in reality the URL does not support https://
    4. Keep in mind, that you cannot use bypass like localhost or localtest.me
  5. Target Token

    1. 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.
    2. After creating a token, just copy and paste it into the corresponding “Target Token“ field.
  6. Access Token *

    1. 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.
