I need to move to story/stories and it's related issues (Defects) to another project in the same Jira server 7.12.1. Any query out-of-the-box without a plug-in. Would simple Move feature work - meanin story being moved, will that move related issues also

Hey Suresh,

Simple move feature will work great for moving Stories and it's sub-tasks with regular JQL like
project = "TEST" AND issuetype = Story. However, yo move the issuelinks under a story you will have to move stories and it's related issues to the new project for the proper issuelinking

1. Move all the linked issues under Story: TEST-1
project = "Test 1" AND issuekey in linkedIssues("TEST-1")
2. Move the Story: TEST-1 to new project
project = "Test 1" AND issuekey = TEST-1

Best,
Sachin.

Hi Sachin,

I think linkedIssues function is available in 8.x and not 7.12.1. Are you sure, your version 7.12.1?
