Can I change an epic layout?

mvanostrand March 4, 2025

We have epics that were created before we implemented an issue collector. I would like to change these epics to have the same layout as the newer ones created by the issue collector. Is this possible?

Hello @mvanostrand 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

Can you provide screen images showing the two layouts and describe the changes you are trying to make?

mvanostrand March 4, 2025

 

I will try.

I've been looking around and I might be asking about a screen instead of a layout. TBH I'm not sure what the correct terminology is.

Yes, terminology can be confusing. That is why it is helpful to provide screen images, so that we can see what you are seeing.

Are these Epics in the same Jira Project? Do they have the same project key as a prefix for their issue keys; i.e. ABC-123?

What is the project Type for the project(s) in which the Epics exist? You can get the project Type information from the View All Projects page under the Projects menu.

This first screenshot is the old layout. The second is the new layout.

Thank you for that additional information. That is helpful.

I can see that the Epics are in different projects:

S1000 is a Company Managed Software project. That is the old layout.

I can see that the new layout is in the PIT project. What type of project is that? Find it in the list of projects on the View All Projects page under the Projects menu, and tell us what it says in the Type column.

If PIT is also a Company Managed Software project, then it is technically possible to share the screen configuration, fields, and layout between that project and the S1000 project. If PIT is a Team Managed project, then sharing that configuration is not possible.
