How to bulk move selected stories between epics in one go?

Question

Hi Team,

I have created a product backlog epic and added the stories. Team have decided to work on the stories as per client ask. So, I have created a new epic specific to the client and want to move the stories from product backlog epic to the new epic. However, I couldn't find the option to bulk move (select the stories and move in one go). Need a helping hand.

FYI: The 2 epics are in the same project.

Platform: Jira classic software

Hi @G subramanyam

Do this.

* Click on the existing Epic, it will filter the issues under it.
* Bulk select the issues in the range using shift or ctrl for one by one* While the issues are selected | Bulk Change
* Edit Issue | Change Epic Link and select the new epic.
* OR
* Simple drag them to another epic.

Check the screenshot below. Bulk change will allow you to do other change if you want.

I hope it helps.
