Hello everyone,

I want to clone an epic to a different project without using the deep clean app. Is there any way I can do that? Anyone can help or provide some resources? 

Cheers

Hi @Shahrina Ahmed 

Welcome to the Community!!

It's a two-step process actually if you do it in Jira.

Clone the Issue, Move the Issue

If you regularly clone the issue to the same project build automation with a manual trigger!!

Thanks,

@Pramodh M Thank you so much. Do you know how I can clone the bulk epics to a new project?

@Shahrina Ahmed 

Export the Epics with only selected columns, 

And then remove the issue-key change the Epic name and summary according to your needs, import the issue using CSV format. This needs bit of testing before you perform bulk epic import

So I would suggest test it before you import all the issues, once you get the hang of it, it's easy!!

@Pramodh M  Can you tell me how do I clone the epic including sub tasks and stories? 

As, the two way cloning does not includes the stories or subtasks?

Of course, without using any app or plugins?
