Convert Independent Project to Normal Project?

Phillip D

A non-admin user created an independent project thinking they were creating a new project for the team. Is there a way to convert this to a normal project so we can manage the workflows and everything like normal?

I can delete it and create a new one but then we'll lose that key. Which, silly as it is, the team spent a while debating to come up with what they wanted. So I'd prefer not to have to do that.

 

Note: I just asked a very vague question and got an answer to help me narrow down what it is I'm actually looking for. I didn't realize that independent projects were a thing. I figured this would be much more clear if I just asked the real question again.

@Phillip D, Managing independent projects document  hold the answer for you. 

seems like you can't convert an independent project to a normal project. Anyway I suggest to contact your JIRA admin to check the ability of sharing workflows and permission schemes with independent projects. If it is possible. probably Admins are the only authorized persons to do this change. 

These projects do not share their configuration with any other project. They have their own workflows and fields, their own permissions and their own destinies.
