How to clone project in Jira Software?

[Darryl Lee]

Unfortunately there is no built-in function for this.

If the project is a Company-managed (aka "Classic") project, you can use a third-party application, Jira Command Line Interface.

You will likely require a license (full or trial) to use the cloneProject action.

Hi @Milan Šalka,

Your requirement can be achieved by using our Jira CLI app. Please refer to the marketplace link to our app here https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/6398/jira-command-line-interface-cli?hosting=cloud&tab=versions

The answer to your question is "You can clone a project with the below CLI action command".

--action cloneProject --project "COTMU" --toProject "ZJTARGET" --cloneIssues --copyAttachments --copySubtasks

Use cloneProject CLI action and provide values to the required parameters: project, toProject.
For example, here, COTMU is an existing project and ZJTARGET is a newly created project.

The CLI action, Creates a new project as a clone of a base project, and optionally you can copy versions, components, role actors, and issues to a new project.
