Jira Cloud - cannot create / select CLASSIC Projects

Question

I am using JIRA CLOUD.

I seem to have lost the ability to create CLASSIC projects. Next Gen will not work for us because we have custom fields that we need to use across all projects.

I only seem to have the ability to create projects from these templates. How can I create a project from an existing project and/or create a CLASSIC Project

Hi @Stefanie Sullivan

* Select the Product (Jira Software, Jira Service Management, Jira Work Management)
* Select the Project Template once you select the Product
* Select Company managed project (You have team managed and company managed)
* On the next page, you will get to choose the shared project settings option.

Thanks,
Pramod

Hi, @Stefanie Sullivan !

Note that share project settings aren’t available on Free plan.

Look through the documentation:

To create a project with a shared configuration:

* Select Projects > Create project in the navigation.
* Under project templates, templates are grouped into a series of use-case based categories. Under Products, templates are grouped by Jira Cloud products. Choose a category or product.
* Learn more about the available templates and select a template.
* View the detailed information on the template and choose Use template.
* Choose project type: Company-managed.
* Give your project a name.
* Select Advanced. Note that share project settings aren’t available on Free plan.
* Tick the Share settings with an existing project checkbox.
* Use the Choose project dropdown to select the project from which you want your new project to share its configuration.
* Select Create.
