## [Jira Cloud] Migration to Forge

At Appfire, we’re committed to maintaining the highest standards of security, reliability, and performance across our solutions. As part of this commitment, Connector for Salesforce & Jira Cloud has been developed and deployed on Atlassian Forge, Atlassian’s most advanced cloud development platform. 

Moving to Forge ensures your data is protected within Atlassian’s trusted infrastructure, leveraging its built-in security, compliance, and scalability. By embracing Forge, Appfire continues to deliver on its promise to offer secure, enterprise-grade apps that evolve with Atlassian’s platform.

# Enhancements 

## [Jira Cloud] DC to Cloud migration updates

> ⚠️ This release requires you to use the latest Jira DC version to start any new migrations. If you attempt to start a migration on a previous version, it will not work. Any migrations you already have in progress will continue to run and complete as expected.

This release improves the reliability and transparency of the migration process from Connector for Salesforce & Jira (Data Center) to Connector for Salesforce & Jira (Cloud). The progress stop step has been removed; migration now runs continuously to completion.

For more details on migration steps, see [Migrate Connector for Salesforce & Jira Data Center to Cloud](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CSFJIRA/pages/2161049701).
