Need to remove prefix on issue summary field

[tim.castle]

I'm pretty green with Jira, but was able to use Deep Clone to copy all the issues from a team-managed project to a company-managed one. The problem is that I missed the option to turn off prefixing all issues in the new project with "CLONE - "

Is there a way I can effectively search and replace the Summary field to remove the text from the beginning? 

Again, I'm really green here, so any responses should reflect my n00bness.

Thanks!

Hi  @tim.castle 

Welcome to the Atlassian Community,

1. If you have lots of issues then filter them out using JQL like summary ~ "Clone"

2. The Export those issues in CSV file

3. In the CSV file remove the Clone prefix from summary column using Ctr F + remove

4. Import the same file and map the issuekey  and summary field So it will update the existing issues summary only

Accept the Answer if it helps

Thanks @Sachin Dhamale

However, when I'm importing, the field mapping doesn't show "Issue Key" as an option in the dropdown menu.

@tim.castle ,

Try to import issue from Admin section > External Import Secion

That did it! Thanks again, @Sachin Dhamale
