Cloning single epic along with Story, task & Subtasks

[prabhu chilukuri]

Hi Team,

is there a way to clone the epic along with linked issues(Story, Bug, Task, Sub-Tasks & etc..........) without using add-ons?

Thanks,

Hi Prabhu,

You will need an add-on like Deep Clone to do that.

Hi John,

Thanks for the Quick response,

I found this "Clone Epic Template for Jira" Free App. What is the difference between These two apps?

[John Funk]

I have not used the Clone Epic Template app, but it might be more specialized just for Epics. Since it is Free, I would say just give it a try and see if it meets your needs.  :-)

So... I pay for Jira and it lacks a basic feature of cloning a task with subtasks?

[John Funk]

I believe you can clone a task with subtasks. It's the Epics and their children that are the issue - probably because the parent and the children can span multiple projects, unlike the task/subtask relationship.
