Automatically move priority from 1 to another

[Sophy Lewis]

Currently we have 5 priorities in place: blocker, critical, normal, major and minor

Two are being removed - blocker and normal.

For the existing issues that have either blocker or normal set as priority is there a way to move all from normal to minor for example?

Hello,

You can use the bulk edit feature. Select all issues with the normal priority:

priority = Normal

And bulk edit the priority field to minor.

You can find more info about bulk edit here:

Hi @Sophy Lewis,

I would suggest using a bulk change (edit multiple issues at the same time).

You can do this twice.  Once for the blocker priority issues and once for the normal priority issues.

Here is the documentation on how to do that:
