How can I clone a board?

Thomas Wrobel_lz91pc

I did not find a way to clone a board in the new Jira. How can I do this?

Accepted answers

Thomas Wrobel_lz91pc

This is ridiculous. I used to work with copied boards a lot. Now in the new design, there seems to be no way to do this. Is there really no way to do this?

I have recently switched back to the old UI but believe if you go to view all boards page you can click on the elipses to the right of the board you wish to copy.

You can copy a board in JIRA. From the "boards" drop down you can click on "View all boards" and from there when you see the list of boards then you can click on the options available for the board and copy the board.

Thanks for the feedback. It just seems that with the "new" Jira there is no "Boards" drop down anymore.

@Thomas Wrobel, we’re you not able to copy via the view all boards and selecting the board of your choice? To get to the view all boards you click on the magnifying glass (search).

Thomas Wrobel_lz91pc

Thanks, @Jack Brickey, you're a life saver. I must say, that under the magnifying glass is not the most obvious or intuitive places in my opinion. But now I have found "all boards", everything is fine.

Jack Brickey

indeed. an example of why I moved to the old UI. I like the new UI in a lot of respects but I miss my menu bar. Part of this is because I was used to it but part because my common tasks are at my finger tips.

Where is this "Boards" drop-down? I don't see it!

Jack Brickey

@[deleted], the drop down exists for server but not cloud. At least it used to be on Server so assume it is still there. :-)

unknown

Okay, so cloud we can not view all boards, clone boards, etc?

Gavin McMurdo

@Atlasssian - can we get a response for this question please? It has been almost a year.

without this feature - it pretty much makes Jira unusable for me

Jack Brickey

@Gavin McMurdo, while i'm not an Atlassian I can try to assist.

What are you looking for here? The original post was about how to copy a board which has been answered? Is that what you are looking for or something else? If something else I would encourage you to create a new question if an answer does not exist.

Christine Saxon

Thanks Jack- you sir are a life saver, many thanks!

Found it, thanks !

Jack Brickey

@Romain , this really should be a new question as it seems different. That said....

first understand that boards are just visual representations of issues in one or more projects they do not define the workflows.
if you have a new project and you are looking to create a board that looks/behaves similar to an existing board you can certainly copy the other one, edit the filter to associate to the new project and then tweak from there. The key here is you must edit the new boards filter because it is associated w/ the old project(s) and that is why you will see issues from that project.
If you want to extend the same workflow from one project to another that is a different matter. You can make a copy of the workflow which will go into the Inactive workflows. Here you can then edit them to be precisely what you want and then in the new project associate that workflow w/ the desired Issuetypes.

Maybe i'm not understanding your question/issue?

Followed all this and the 3 little dots to copy are missing on next-gen projects still there on kanban and scrum wtf Atlassian?

Johnny Lombardo

yup

Steven_8k8wp9

I found this link that allows you to clone "copy" and board and all its columns. etc.

Johnny Lombardo

Hi,

We need to "Request Access" to that link, yet the "Request Access" feature is currently broken/unavailable.

Help?

To copy a board

1. goto https://yoursite-here.net/jira/boards

2. click ... (ellipisis) and choose copy from the dropdown

3. you should now see your copied board in your project.

Yannick Hoffmann

Yes, I would also need to copy Next-Gen boards

Harry Slaughter

Thank you for this.

In the current UI if you go to dashboard / view all dashboards it takes you to /jira/dashboards, which does NOT show all the boards.

When I go to /jira/boards, I see a smaller list of dashboards that includes those hidden in the first link.

Blech.
