How to clone Jira issues with user-controlled options | Elements Copy & Sync
Clone Jira issues with more flexibility by letting users choose what to copy. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to use Elements Copy & Sync “Clone and Move” recipes to give end-users control over how they duplicate work items, without requiring complex configuration each time.
Unlike traditional cloning setups where admins define all rules in advance, this approach allows users to decide what data to copy (fields, attachments, comments) and where to create the new work item. This makes it ideal for teams that need adaptable workflows, cross-project collaboration, or flexible issue escalation. It’s especially useful for Jira admins who want to balance governance with user autonomy while improving Jira automation and workflow efficiency.
In this video, you’ll learn how to:
configure “Clone and Move” recipes in Elements Copy & Sync
let users select what data to copy from a work item
allow users to choose the target space or work item type
enable flexible cloning across spaces and teams
differentiate user-driven cloning from classic admin-defined rules
