How can I change a task between projects

[Gina Martinez]

I have a new project in jira, but my team have some tasks wich are in other project and have relation with the new one. ¿ how can i put those tasks in my new project?

You can use the Move feature (maybe). You need to have permissions to do so. When viewing an issue click on the ellipses in the top right and see if you have Move option.

Thanks, i need put it into a epic in my new project, how can i do it?

[Jack Brickey]

once you move them you can edit each and add the epic link to them. if there are only a handful you can do this one at a time. if there are many consider the following:

old project:

1. run a query/search to return all of the issues you want to move
2. use bulk change (ellipses in top right of search results)
3. choose all of the issues
4. choose Edit
5. add a label (e.g. moved) to all issues
6. complete the bulk change
7. now move all of these issues using bulk change same as before but in step 4 choose Move
8. complete the bulk move

New project:

1. run this query - labels = moved
2. use bulk change again and choose Edit
3. update the Epic Link field w/ the proper epic
4. complete the bulk operation

done...
