Hi All,
we have an urgent problem: one porject lead needs to create and link 100 issues from one project to another. How is it possible? Repeat: not moving but create and link.
Can you please advise?
Thanks,
Rumi

Sounds like you need a programtic solution. I would think using curl and the REST interface will be your quickest solution, trading off long-term reuasability.
# Export the existing issues to a csv/text file (using issue navitgator)
# with a simple shell script., loop through all issue in the file
## echo details from CSV into JSON format
## Post content to create new issue - http://docs.atlassian.com/jira/REST/latest/#id168761
## Create json with both issue keys, and type of link
## Using created issue ID, create link to former issue. http://docs.atlassian.com/jira/REST/latest/#id166728
The API links i sent include sample request payloads. Grab a developer with some decent shell/curl scripting knowleddge and they can do it < 1 hour.
JIRA Command Line Interface createIssue and linkIssue. Depending on what information drives the creation, you might be able to use runFromCsv or runFromSql to drive it. If so, then on the linkIssue you can use replacement variables to automatically get the previously created issue id - see How to use replacement variables

Hi Rumceisz,
With ImpEx, you can easily create and link multiple issues from one project to another.
To see a step-by-step guide for it, please read the documentation.
If you just want to have a quick look at it, see this short video.
If you like this approach, you can download ImpEx from the Marketplace.
If you have any questions, feel free to let me know!
Best Regards, Mark

You could use Zapier hooks to do this without requiring any programming.

The general flow would be:

My guess is to put a transition into the workflow with a Script Post-Functio. The script would create an issue in the proper project and clone the current issues' summary, description, etc.
The only problem that I am not acquinted with that scripting:(

Hi Rumceisz,
You can always do it programatically by using for example Jelly Script - Link Issue and Create Issue Tags
https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Jelly+Tags#JellyTags-jira:LinkIssue
https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Jelly+Tags#JellyTags-jira:CreateIssue
There is specific examplein the documentation
Create two issues and link them
<JiraJelly xmlns:jira="jelly:com.atlassian.jira.jelly.JiraTagLib"> <jira:CreateIssue project-key="HSP" assignee="-1" summary="Issue summary 1" reporter="admin" issueKeyVar="issuekey1"/> <jira:CreateIssue project-key="NDT" assignee="-1" summary="Issue summary 2" reporter="admin" issueKeyVar="issuekey2"/> <jira:LinkIssue key="${issuekey1}" linkKey="${issuekey2}" linkDesc="duplicates"/> </JiraJelly>
I hope it helps
Best Regards,
Mirek
