Upgrading from Issue Checklist Free/Pro to Enterprise

Checklist for Jira | Enterprise was released on February 21, 2024.

1 Upgrading to Enterprise for the First Time
2 Upgrading to Enterprise If You Had Enterprise Installed in the Past

The app is available in three versions: free pro and enterprise. All versions are fully supported. See this page for a comparison of available features.
Migrating between versions automatically preserves all checklist data (with the exception of Global Checklists available in enterprise only). Local checklists, templates, values in custom fields, etc. will be immediately available once the upgrade/downgrade is complete.
After upgrading/downgrading the checklist panel will be displayed beneath the issue Description. Users can move the Checklist to the right side panel if they wish.
Upgrading or downgrading between versions can be performed an unlimited number of times.

Data Preservation – The instructions below advise you to install the Enterprise app, before uninstalling the version you are currently using. However, these actions can be performed in reverse order without risking data loss. Checklist data is preserved for 90 days after uninstalling any version of the app.
