Summary: At present, the Java Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA) does not present any warning or error messages during the data preparation phase, even when a pkey of the project contains special characters. 

As pkeys with special characters are not supported in the cloud, this could potentially lead to issues after the migration project has been completed. 

It would be beneficial to implement a validation system that displays warning or error messages during the data preparation stage “if any pkeys not conforming the pkey format definition in the cloud”

Replication Steps: 

• Create a project in the Jira server
• Modiy the pkey value to include '_' in both project and project_key tables.
• Migrate newly created project to cloud using JCMA (Make sure the pkey is reflecting properly on the UI)Not

Note:  As the latest Jira version doesn't allow creation of a pkey with special characters, pkey was changed from the DB.

Actual Result:

• Project migrates successfully to the cloud without any warnings/errors.

Expected Result:

• JCMA should not allow the migration of such projects as the pkey format with special characters is not supported in the cloud.
