Change a task or sub-task to an activity

[James Leblanc]

I have been assigned the task of converting all tasks and sub-tasks to an activity. I see an option to change them to stories but not an option for activity. Can it be done?

Hi James,

If by Activity you mean a new Issue Type, then that Issue Type for Activity needs to be added to the Issue Type Scheme for the project.

Hi @James Leblanc,

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

Do you have an issue type called activity in your project? If so, then you should be able to change tasks and sub-tasks to that issue type.

Hi @James Leblanc 

Welcome to our Community.

What do you mean for the "activity"? Maybe you could show us some screeshots or interpret this term.

Thanks，

I do not have the option to convert to activity. I can convert to a story. I can also create a NEW activity

Thanks, this issue type seems to be in your jira project.

Then please go to issue search and query all the issues required to be converted to Activity (follow the below 3 steps).

Just tried using move and was able to select activity
