Clone option not available for Done Epics

Question

Given an Epic in Done status
When clicking on ... Actions
Then Clone option is not available.

This is not happening in other issue types, neither in Epics in other statuses.

Done is the last status in our Epic workflow.

Hi @David Ortiz Bollain

If you can't make it happen natively, I can suggest trying our app Elements Copy & Sync that allows you to clone Jira epics (you can even include the child issues).

You can clone any Epic or set a status like "Done" for example.

Don't hesitate to try it (it's free for 30 days).

Hi @David Ortiz Bollain  in addition to @Florian Bonniec 's comment:

Please also check, if your Epic is still editable when put into a Done status. I could also imagine cloning is not available in this case, as cloning usually contains adding an issue link to the new and original issue. Not being able to edit an issue might prevent this as well.

Hi @David Ortiz Bollain

Have you check if your workflow do not have a workflow property that prevent cloning ?
