Question

How to get Tempo data on Cloud if switching to Jira provided time tracking as Time tracking provider

Answer

On Cloud, Tempo resides in it's own system, and using it's own database not the same database and system as Jira. Once you disable Tempo plugins, you will not be able to access Tempo data in Tempo instnace. However, Tempo has sync'ed all the worklogs in Jira instance with a unified username "Tempo Timesheets". These worklogs will only contain Jira related info, and not Tempo related fields such as Accounts, work attributes, etc.

It would be best for you to get all the necessary Tempo data with Cloud REST API as a backup.

Some customers will even update their Jira worklogs (using Jira REST API) with Tempo data after they retrieved Tempo worklogs with Tempo Cloud REST API.
