The 'Bulk Copy' feature is available from JSU 2.0 |
Description
You can copy a set of issues (the current result of an issue filter) into a certain Jira project.
...
In the project administration, select Bulk Copy Issues from the Actions dropdown.
...
Refine what will be copied
In the next screen you have a few options for what will be copied:
...
Click Bulk Copy Issues to start the copy process. You will see a progress bar to track it.
What will happen with issue links between issues?
If both issues which are linked, had been part of your search filter (TF-1 → TF-2), the corresponding issue link will be created between the copies (XY-1 → XY-2).
If there is an issue link pointing to an issue outside of your search filter (TF-1 → TF-3), the issue link from the copied issue will point to the same issue (XY-1 → TF-3).
...
| Info |
|---|
This feature applies to issue links. Epic links are not supported with the above functionality. From the copied issue, the epic links will always point to the original epics. |
...
To further restrict this, you can create a user group with the name
| Code Block |
|---|
bulkcopy-users |
and assign the users you want to allow to perform bulk copy to this group. Then, only these users can perform this action.
...
Bulk Copy can generate a lot of load on your instance. To prevent overload, you can configure the following two limits:
Number of issues that can be copied
Number of simultaneous running Bulk Copy jobs
Number of issues that can be copied
This can be configured through the Jira Application Property
| Code Block |
|---|
jira.search.views.default.max |
The default value is 1,000. To read more about how to configure Jira Application Properties, see Advanced Jira application configuration.
...
This can be configured by using the following System Property
| Code Block |
|---|
-Dch.beecom.jira.jsu.action.bulkcopy.processormanager.maxconcurrentprocessors=<Number of simultaneous Jobs> |
The default value is 10 simultaneous Bulk Copy jobs. To learn more about how to configure System Properties in Jira, see Setting properties and options on startup.
