Elements Copy & Sync can be configured by Jira administrators only.
The app configuration page can be accessed from anywhere on the Jira Cloud instance, by clicking on the Apps button in the top menu, and then selecting Elements Copy & Sync.
Once on the main app page, Jira admins have the ability to configure their first recipe, which will be triggered by Jira Cloud users to create copies and synchronize issues accross the Jira instance.
Their are currently four types of recipes to be used for different use cases :
- Copy & Sync recipes
- these recipes can be used to create issues from existing ones, including their data, and synchronizing them
- Synchronization recipes
- these recipes can be used to synchronize the data of issues linked with one another
- Subtasks creation recipes
- these recipes can be used to create subtasks that include data from their parent issue, and synchronizing them
- Clone & Move recipes
- these recipes can be used to let users easily choose what data they want to copy, including comments and subtasks
