Move subtasks from one project parent to another project parent

[Damian Teixeira]

I have a routine need to move a subtask from project X to project Y.  Based on what I've been able to determine the only way to do so is a multistep process.

1.Convert subtask to issue

2. Move issue from project X to project Y

3. Make issue a subtask of the new parent

• Is there an alternative that would allow this to be done in single step?
• Is there API REST calls that can make this easier? 
• Can those API calls become embedded into the UI?  Essentially, the only input required is the input of the new issue parent.

Hi,

You have to add the custom fields under edit screen too. You can find the missing fields using the "Where is my field" option to find the fields. Check the below links,
