The clone link type "Cloners" does not exist. A link to the original issue will not be created.

Hello,

I am getting and error while trying to clone an issue and  I did a quick check in the "Issue Linking" setting and notice that there is no "Cloners" in there but "Clones". Does this simple mean that I just need to rename the Clones to Cloners to get rid of this warning when cloning an issue?

Thanks,

Hi Lorenze,

Indeed just renaming "clones" to "cloners" should resolve this behavior. For some additional background on this issue please check the following KB article out:

• The Clone Link Type 'Cloners' Does Not Exist Due to Missing Property

Let us know if this helps :).

Or maybe add a new issue link called "Cloners"? I have yet to try this. 

Thanks for the response.

Happy to help! Indeed adding another issue link called "Cloners" will also resolve the behavior as well. Essentially Jira is just looking for this exact matching string during the process of creating the issue link while cloning an issue.

Please let us know how it goes.
