Cloning initiative - child issues not cloning over

[Edward Fordham]

Hi there 

I have cloned a initiative in Jira and selected "clone child issues" however once it cloned the initiative the child issues are missing.

Hello @Edward Fordham

If you're seeking for an easier way to clone initiatives and their child issues, you can try our app Elements Copy & Sync that allows you to clone and sync a full hierarchy of issues with all their content (summary, description, custom fields, comments, attachments, etc). 

You can check our guide here.

You can try the app for free during 30 days (and it stays free under 10 users).

Kind regards,

Clara

Hi @Edward Fordham and welcome to the community!

If you are willing to try a third-party app, you can try our Deep Clone for Jira.

Deep Clone can clone whole issues hierarchies (Initiatives → Epics → Tasks → Subtasks) with its Epic/Tree Clone feature.
