how to skip wizard when moving single issue between two next-gen projects?

Question

In the olden days, under classic project scheme, moving an issue from project A to B was simple - single step when starting from issue details screen.

When doing the same between two next-gen projects on current Jira Cloud, I am forced to go through a multi-step step wizard, confirming how components should be matched etc. is there a way to setup both projects so that moves are ~ a single click, without the wizard?

thank  you,

Hello @Nikita Tovstoles,

Thank you for reaching out to Atlassian Community!

When it comes to moving an issue from one project to another, or just moving from one issue type to another, it's necessary to go through the steps because of the workflow statuses, required fields, and so on.

Even if the project has the exact same issue type and workflow, it will be necessary to check everything before moving the ticket.

I found only one feature request suggesting a similar option:

* Move issues with drag and drop

Please, click on vote and watch to receive updates about the feature, or feel free to create a new one on jira.atlassian.com (project JRACLOUD) adding more details about why this feature would be important for your environment.

Hi Nikita,

welcome to the Atlassian Community!

The wizard is needed to ask the user how the issue should be moved by the means of necessary details.

I know the olden days, even from on-premise, but also there details were asked for. For easier cases less - for a more complex more there were more infos to be put it.

I don't believe there will be a change short term. A move is a pretty complex thing :/

Cheers,
Daniel
