How to move subtask of parent to new project after moving parent to new project?

Molly Favret

I moved a parent ticket to a new project, and was hoping the subtask would move as well but it did not. So now I have a case where the parent and subtask have different projects (different keys) but still have the parent-subtask relationship.

How can I move the subtasks over to the new project as well?

Have you tried going to the Sub-Task, select the 'Move' option and follow the steps? You can choose the same parent again, but this it will have the new project key.

Yes, I had tried that but it didnt work. When I chose the parent, it said this is already the parent for the subtask. The parent key is updated, but the subtask key is not.

Here it is a support issue about this matter.

Thanks. It seems the only workaround is to migrate it to a parent type issue, migrate to the correct project, then migrate back to a subtask, is this correct?

I tried to move subtasks along with their parents and Jira tried to keep the sub-tasks in the original Project.

To do a bulk move and get the subtasks moved I had to:

1) update the filter with "AND type != Subtask"

2) Go through the Move wizard

3) Subtasks were automatically included and were moved.

Above solution works perfectly fine.

Hi @John Minne , I tried the above steps, and moved to new project. the parent sub-task relationship is perfect, but the time log entered on the sub-task didn't get migrated. Has anyone come across such situation?

Thanks a lot for that advise @John Minne

It works perfectly as expected!
