Hi,

 

I am working a program that runs a program and have a few issues set up with certain details that are not suitable for my reporting. Is it possible to somehow clone to that project without changing their data but using their information and relabel in a new project? make it linked so whenever something changes in that project mine also has some status change, however my project would be labeled differently?

Hello @Anna Fadel 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

What is the project type for the project where the issue exists? Get that information from the Type column on the View All Projects page under the Projects menu.

There is a native Clone feature for making a copy of an issue.

https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/clone-an-issue/

However, when an issue is cloned it reverts the new issue to the starting status for an issue of that type in the destination project. It does not bring along clones of the issue comments nor all the changes recorded in the issue history.

There is also a native feature to move an issue from one project to another.

https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirasoftwarecloud/change-an-issue-s-project-or-issue-type-using-the-move-feature-1283493350.html

However, depending on the types of the source and destination projects, the Move process may not bring across all the data.

 

This process also does not create any sort of synchronization between the issues to copy all the future changes from the source issue to the destination issue.

 

Before we delve more deeply into how you might accomplish that goal, can you provide more information on the reporting you are trying to do and how "certain details that are not suitable for my reporting" actually blocks your ability to get the reports you want?
