Transfer release versions to other projects

[Firas Amer]

I would like to copy the release versions created in a project to other projects, or automate them to be defined in specific other projects as well. Is it possible? Or this can be done only manually?

Automation for JIRA add-on can clone, create, release versions automatically in other projects. No coding required, nice interface.

Hi, I am looking for a way to move releases and issues attached to them to a different project too. Can you expand a bit on your answer as I am not finding that feature in the automation for JIRA add-on documentation? Thanks!

Hello,

It can be done only manually out of the box.

If you want to do it automatically, you would need to write a program or use an add-on.

For example, you could the Power Scripts add-on:

https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/43318/power-scripts-jira-script-automation?hosting=cloud&tab=overview

You could write a script like this:

string[] versionNames;
JVersion jVersion;
string pKey = "projectKey";

versionNames = admGetProjectVersions(pKey);
for(string versionName in versionNames){

jVersion = admGetProjectVersion(pKey, versionName);
 admAddProjectVersion(pKey, jVersion.name, jVersion.description, jVersion.releaseDate);
}

Thanks Alexey.

Do you think this automation could be done also with this add-on?

I am not sure but I think it can not be done with the Automation for Jira add-on

I managed to do it with automation for Jira add on, very easy. No coding required
