How to bulk move EPICS and include all issues types including sub-tasks (on prem)?

Jason Steele

I am attempting to bulk move 20+ EPICS from one project to another. In doing so it is not prompting to include child issue types. If I jql search for EPIC LINK in (JS-1, JS-2, JS-3) etc. id does not include sub-tasks. How do I bulk move epics and include all issue types and subtasks from one project to another?

We are on prem not cloud.

Hi @Jason Steele ,

If you move parent ticket (standard issue types) to other projects. Sub-tasks also gets moved to the other project.

While moving system will ask for the destination issue type of sub-task. You no need to filter them. If you move parent ticket, automatically sub-tasks also get moved.

Thank you. for some reason I am not getting that prompt of subtasks. When I move EPIC it is only prompting me for the EPIC and not any tasks underneath. I tried a test and it moved the epic only then I had to find the associates issues under and move those separately. I know this is non-standard so we are investigating on our instance. Have you seen this before?

Hi @Jason Steele welcome to the community.
As per @Sreenivasaraju P said sub-tasks will be also moved.

Are you sure they are sub-tasks and not just issues in the epic?

Jason Steele

Yes. Definitely subtasks. It's not even prompting for issues either, which is odd. It's literally just moving the Epic and no child issues.

thank you. That makes sense.
