How to clone all issues from a project to a new project

Question

Hi,

1. I've opened a new project and I'd like to import all the tasks from another project (which shares the same configuration).

2. I would also like to have cloned/imported items opened as new in their status.

Is there a way to do it for all tasks/issues together? It's ~200 tasks. I can do without requirement #2 but #1 is a must.

Thanks,

Ori

Thanks. That did the job.

Problem is I thought moving the issues will keep them in the old project as well but it didn't.

Is there a way to clone them and have them in both project?

Hello @Ori Katz

Regarding your requirement

import all the tasks from another project

You can just use Bulk move operation to move issues from one project into another project.
