To configure the Jenkins Remote Plugin, you need to add a Jenkins Server to import your jobs.
Setting a Jenkins Server
To add a Jenkins Server you need to go on your Jenkins configuration: Manage Jenkins > Configure System > Job Import Plugin or http://jenkins-host:port/configure and add the Url and credentials to the host from where will import the jobs.
If you don't have, will need to add the credentials to this server, to do this click on the option Add bellow the Url settings.
Using the Jenkins Import plugin
After setting a Jenkins server you will be able to use the Jenkins Import plugin going to option Job Import Plugin in the Jenkins home or going to the URL: http://jenkins-host:port/Job-import/
If you added only a Jenkins Server it will be selected as default, otherwise, the correct Jenkins server will need to be selected:
Normally you don't need to set the Remote folder or Search into folders options, so if you use the default Jenkins settings, leave these fields blank.
Then, you will click on the Query! button, to start your import. A page with all jobs available to be imported will be showed.
You will need to select all the jobs you want to import one by one, If you have many jobs (like in my case) this can be a little boring. A good idea is to select the Install required plugins option too.
After select everything, you can click on the Import! button to finally starts your import.

Follow below steps to import jobs using UI -
You need to install job import plugin on the server where you need to import jobs to.
Then go to the plugin displayed on left side of jenkins.
Enter url and authentication and jobs will be listed of remote server.
Select the jobs to be copied and done. Jenkins will copy the jobs to your server.
