Cloning a project

Hi,

I have a project that I would need to clone for creating a new project (I need to to keep the old one as is) or export/import all the ideas to a new project.

Any idea about how to do it?

Thanks

hi,

You can export the ideas to csv like any other Jira issues, using a filter search, and then import them back to a new project, using the external system import.

I'm not really sure you can. Can you elaborate on how I can do this?

So, I have a Product Discovery project, which I customise, add some new custom fields, rename some existing fields, change contents of some existing drop downs. And I add my ideas/line items.

So to clone this are you saying I need to: 

1. Export from the above project to csv.

2. Create a new Product Discovery project

3. Import the .csv to the new project, and it will auto-create the custom fields from the "Cloned" project, the renamed fields, the change drop downs, and auto-import the line items, etc.

I'm not sure it can do that. Has anyone proven this works?

Being able to clone or create from Parent would be really useful.

Thanks,

John.

Hi John,

Like any import into Jira, the import does not auto-create custom fields. It let's you choose for each field in the CSV, the corresponding field in Jira. You can either create the custom fields upfront (no need to add the options of the Select fields (drop down) - they will be added automatically from the CSV) - or create them within the import process (see screenshot). Anyway - you will need to define the fields (name, type) and Jira does not know how to do it for you.

Hey @Paolo Pastorino 

If cloning a Jira project is not just a flash in the pan for you, but you want to repeat it multiple times, then your project is a process because recurring projects are processes!

Flower - Process Automation clones your Jira projects as repeatable processes, including all issues, links, and structures.

Here is how to clone a Jira project as a process.

 

Happy automating,

Florian

But does it work for Jira Product Discovery?

Hi @Paolo Pastorino,

I am Marlene from codefortynine.

Another option would be to clone the project including its issues with Deep Clone for Jira.

You can see how the Project Clone works in this demo video.

Again, does it work for Jira Product Discovery?

Hello @Kyle,

Truth be told, when I replied, I wasn't aware that "Jira Product Discovery" is actually a completely new project type, and I apologize for any confusion.

After digging into it a bit more, I've realized that our app can't clone entire "Jira Product Discovery" projects. 

But I can confirm that it is possible to bulk clone and move "ideas" from one "Project Discovery" project to another. 

Deep Clone can clone at the moment: 

  • company-managed projects
  • team-managed software projects
  • team-managed work management projects

Again, I apologize for any confusion.
