is it possible to automatically clone a task after a period of time, there are simply tasks of the same type that need to be performed once every few months or weeks.

Hi @Ivan Andrieiev,

Have you considered using an automation rule with a scheduled trigger?

That way you could have it run at a particular interval and use a JQL query to execute against a list (or a single issue) when you could clone the issue.

I hope that helps!

@Jimmy Seddon  Hi

could you provide an example of this automation?

Sure thing!

This is a rough skeleton of the idea that you want to create:

Thank you both, I'm just having some trouble understanding automation, but I'll keep learning.

@Ivan Andrieiev Take a look at what is available in Atlassian's University.  This free webinar has links to their free skillbuilder and the paid course on Automation which might help you.
