# Migrating Contexts

This section provides information on how to migrate some of your context settings from Server to Cloud.

Note: **Contexts** do not exist on Cloud, but some of their features from Server can still be set up in **Advanced Email Configuration** on Cloud.

1. On the Server interface, display the context configuration that you want to migrate as follows:
   1. Select **Contexts** under the **OUTGOING EMAILS** section of the sidebar.
   2. Click the three dots next to the context configuration you want to migrate and select **Edit**.

2. In a separate browser tab, log in to the Cloud interface and migrate the scope-related settings as follows:
   1. Select **Advanced Email Configuration** under the **ADVANCED CONFIGURATION** menu item of the **Outgoing Mails** configuration tab, and click **Add**.
   2. Copy and paste the content from the **Edit Context** panel on Server to the **Add New Advanced Email Configuration** panel on Cloud. As shown in the image below, make sure to enable the **Email Triggers** you want to apply, and to copy and paste the content of the following fields:
      * **Project**
      * **Issue Type**
      * **JQL Filter**
      * **Order**

3. Migrate email settings as follows:
   1. Click **Next** on the **Add New Advanced Email Configuration** panel of the Cloud interface.

   2. As shown in the image below, make sure to copy and paste the content of the following fields from Server to Cloud:

      * **Field for External Watchers → Store Non-Jira recipients**
      * **Sender Name Pattern → From Name Pattern**
      * **From Address Pattern → From Email Address Pattern**

   3. Scroll down in the **Add New Advanced Email Configuration** panel and migrate the content of the following fields as well:
      * **Reply-to Address Pattern → Reply-To Email Address Pattern**

      * **Bcc Address → BCC address**

      * **Reply Template → Reply/Forward template**

4. Click **Save** in the **Add New Advanced Email Configuration** panel of the Cloud interface.

5. Repeat this procedure for all your contexts.
