migration of issue types from one project to another

[Athira K P]

Hi,

I have logged 4 issues in SS project in JIRA. I am using the same issue types in another project SSO.

I need to delete the issue types from SS project.

Is it possible to migrate the issues logged in project SS to the issue types in project SSO ?

Use the Move option to move the existing issues in SS project to SSO project and remove the mentioned issue types from the issue type scheme of of SS project.

Yes that would do the trick.

Hi Athira,

My suggestion, which will minimize your work effort ( and if I understand your Q correctly ) would be as follows.

I guess you will still need some issue types in the SS project? And you still want to handle these 4 issues in the SS project in the future. Well in that case do like this:

1. Just add the new issue types that you want to use in the SS project in the issue type scheme for the SS project
2. Edit you 4 issues to the new issue types
3. Remove the obsolete issue types from the issue type scheme for the SS project

Good Luck

it is like I have 4 four issue types in SS

1. incident

2. problem

3. CR

4. task

I have issues logged in the issue types CR and problem

Now it needs that the issue types 'CR' and 'problem' should be removed from SS project and should be created in 'SSO project'.

So is it possible to migrate the issues that has already been logged in 'CR' and 'problem' in SS project to that in SSO project
