Clone Issue

UiPath.Jira.Activities.CloneIssue

The Clone Issue activity uses a combination of Jira API calls to emulate the clone function found in the UI. It will create a new issue (Issue) based on the information of the original, and will output a (New Issue) object that can be used as an input variable in subsequent activities (e.g., Issue in Update Issue]).

How it works

The following steps are an example of how the activity works from design time (i.e., the activity dependencies and input/output properties) to run time.

1. Complete the Setup steps.
2. Add the Jira Scope activity to your project.
3. Add the Clone Issue activity inside the Jira Scope activity.
4. Create and enter a String and an Issue ID variable for the Input properties.
5. Create and enter a String and a Project Key variable for the Input properties.
6. Create and enter a Issue and a New Issue variable for the output properties.

Properties

Common

• Continue On Error - This field only supports boolean values (True, False). The default value in this field is False. As a result, if this field is blank and an error is thrown, the execution of the project stops. If the value is set to True, the execution of the project continues regardless of any error.
• DisplayName - The display name of the activity. This field supports only strings or String variables.

Input

• Issue ID - The Issue to clone. This field supports only strings or String variables.
• Project Key - The project key for the issue. This field supports only strings or String variables.

Misc

• Private - If selected, the values of variables and arguments are no longer logged at Verbose level.
