What it does
- Projects, tasks and subtasks map to Jira's hierarchy.
- Comments show who wrote them.
- Attachments come along.
- Assignees get matched to Jira users.
- Before anything gets written, you see a preview and try it on 5 tasks (which you can undo).
How it works
Setup takes about 15 minutes, and you don't need a consultant.
Connect
Sign in to Wrike from inside Jira. Only Jira admins (and whoever they allow) can set it up.
Map
Pick a project and a Jira space. Shim suggests where each field goes in Jira, and how projects, tasks and subtasks fit Jira's hierarchy. Change whatever you want.
Preview
You get a list of every issue Shim is about to create or update, plus every value it can't copy over exactly and why.
Test
Run it on 5 tasks and go look at them in Jira. If something's off, undo the test and fix the mapping.
Go live
Shim moves the rest, and that's it. The project is in Jira.

| Needs attention | Launch checklist | Assignee [email protected] isn't a Jira user. Map this person, or leave unassigned. |

Who it's for
Teams moving to Jira for good.
You're done tracking this work in Wrike and want all of it in Jira, history included, without the cleanup a CSV import often needs.
Jira site admins.
You (or anyone you give access to) set it up once, and that's it. There's nothing to maintain afterward.
What you need, and what it costs
Requirements
- Jira Cloud (not Data Center or Server)
- A Wrike account, on any plan (Free works too)
- A Jira admin to install the app
Common questions
What does it bring over that a CSV import doesn't?
Comments (with who wrote them), attachments, and who's assigned to what (matched to their Jira accounts). Subtasks stay under their tasks in Jira, too. A CSV import often skips those, or takes hours of cleanup to get them in.
What Wrike plan do I need?
Any plan works, Free included. Shim sees the same projects and tasks as whoever signs in to Wrike.
Can I undo it?
That's what the 5-task test is for. Look at those tasks in Jira, and if something's off, undo the test, fix the mapping and try again. Shim never deletes anything in Wrike, either.
Is it really free?
Yes. Import apps are free for any size team.
What if we decide to keep using Wrike after all?
Then install Wrike Sync for Jira. It picks up where the import left off, so you don't have to map anything again.
Does it work with Jira Data Center or Server?
No, just Jira Cloud.
