Hi @Christopher Atkins 

 

It might be helpful to think about whether or not you want the tasks from you list organized within one Jira issue (in which case a checklist app could work), or if you're looking for a way to create separate issues for each item on your list.

 

Where are you storing/maintaining your list currently? And is something that changes often, or that multiple people need to maintain?

Hi @Christopher Atkins ,

Please take a look at the Issue Checklist copy-paste documentation.

Is this something that you are looking for?

Sorry, I just noticed the question is for Server while the Issue Checklist is Cloud only.

hi @Christopher Atkins @welcome to the Community. You can copy/paste to create tasks but there are other options. You can use automation to automatically create recurring tasks based upon some trigger. You can consider one of the checklist addons which sort of allows you to copy and paste.
