How to move epic from one project to another project

[Marcin Szarek]

Hi,

Can you please tell me how to move epic from one project to another project?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Marcin,

simply use the move functionality as with every other Jira issue:

test <-- this to get me by the spam bug

ok so now for my real question...

@Thomas, , what happens if the epic has associated stories/tasks? Assume you have to move separately and re-associate?

[Thomas Schlegel]

they keep their associations. It's a little bit strange then - the Epic is in the new project, the associated story in the old one.

You have to move the story also. But moving a story moves their task also. 

(I can't add the 'at Jack Brickey'-tag  - invalid HTML...)

thanks. makes sense so now we know...

yep same thing.

Can you move an EPIC from one board (i.e., created in one board) to another board of the same project?  thank you

[Jack Brickey]

@Kim-Oanh Pham, yes you just need to update your board templates such that it is removed from one board and appears on the other.
