Custom Jira Project template; How to clone board from "Create New Project" window?

[mhulse]

Hi all,

We have JIRA cloud solution. Not sure what version it is.

Yesterday, I created a customized project with all the settings, fields, screens, permissions, Kanban board, etc., and saved the project as "MY COMPANY PROJECT TEMPLATE" (for example).

Now, I would like all new projects to use everything about this template.

Question #1:

Is it possible for me to have my custom project "template" show within the "Create Project" modal window?

Question #2:

When I use the "Create with shared configuration", see screenshot above, I am able to choose my "template" project to use for my new project, but unfortunately, this technique does not copy the kanban board settings. 

What is the best way to include my Kanban board settings from another project (i.e., my project "template")?

Question #3:

Is it possible for me to create an option similar to the "Kanban software development" (as seen above) that will create a project and a Kanban board all in one fell swoop?

Honestly, I just want to click a button and have it create a project, with a board included (like Kanban option in above screenshot) and start working.

Optimally, I'd like to not have a project "template" lingering around just so we can use it as a default starting point.

Hopefully that all makes sense. Please let me know if I can clarify any of my questions. Thanks a bunch in advance!

Remove the ability of the "JIRA Developers" to view all the projects! I'm guessing that your permission schemes have 'jira-developers' in the "Browse Projects" permission. Check that part.

You can manage JIRA permission in many ways. One of them is to create "JIRA Roles" like "Viewer", "User", "Admins" then use that to give access for each project. You also have the option to create one group name per JIRA Project if you so many users.
