Clone a Jira issue, and see Smart Checklist content transferred over to your cloned issue.
To use this functionality you need toĀ set up the "Checklists" custom field first.
Follow these instructions to do so.
If youāre on v.5.0.0 or higher - custom fields are set up automatically.
Use Case:
If you want to use one Jira issue as a template - you can clone it together with your checklist and reuse it further.
Create a JIRA ticket.
Populate it with a checklist that you want to re-use.
Save the JIRA ticket. That will be your template.
Once you want to create a new issue with the same checklist - simply clone the template ticket.
Checklists will be copied to the new ticket.
Troubleshooting
If the Clone didnāt work - please make sure the āChecklistsā custom field is set to Global context. Apply to all issues in Jira in a custom field configuration.
Go to System ā Issues ā Custom Fields
Choose āChecklistsā field
Click Configurations
Click Edit Configuration
See āChoose applicable contextā ā choose āGlobal context. Apply to all issues in Jira.ā
Click Modify
NOTE: click āmodify even if you have āGlobal context selectedā. To make sure itās properly applied after the custom field was added automatically.
