Jira Assets Object moving

Michael Frade

Having trouble with a third party API in syncing data due to inheritance/child object types.  there is a reference object attribute to the parent object type( setting to include children is on). When the api goes to query, it is not finding the object as it exists in the Child object type ID.

Considering altering the structure of the schema to have all the children in one Object type with an attribute that breaks them up into different categories.  Is there an easy way to move the objects into the Parent Object type ID( inheritance and abstract is turned on) other than creating another object type and importing all the different objects into this new object type as new objects( so it would have new object keys)

 

So for Object Type A is a Parent. With Child Object Types B and C.

Object Type B has Object X. Object Type C has Object Y. 

Want to move Objects X and Y into Object Type A  and not have to create a new Object Type D

 

Hopefully that makes sense

Hi Michael, 

Feel a little lost by the end of your post haha so let me know if my answer is not hitting what you're asking but to my limited knowledge of assets I think importing is the way, I don't believe it's possible to move objects in Assets yet. 

In terms of moving X & Y into A maybe you can create a new attribute to identify the functional type while being the same object type.
