Creating a new project using JIRA REST API also creates new workflow scheme and screen scheme

Question

Hi,

When I create a new project using JIRA REST API, a new workflow scheme and screen scheme is also created.

But I would like to use a default workflow scheme instead of creating a new one when a new project is created using JIRA rest API.

So can anyone help me to achieve this goal?

Hi @Ste Wright

Your solution works with Jira Server, but what happens with Jira Cloud ?

What solution do you recommend ?

Thank by advance for your answer.

Hi @Nitin Makwana

There are a few things you can try:

* This article, Create a Project via REST with default schemes
* This workaround, which suggests it is possible to create a project with shared configuration (which is how you'd do it in Jira directly)

There is a suggestion outstanding for doing it via shared configuration - see https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-45929
