Create a remote issue
In the operation creation page, when a remote Jira server is selected in the "Server" field of the "Target" tab, the Copy & Sync operation will create and link a new issue on a second JIRA instance, that is to say a remote server.
Prior to configuring such an operation, an Application link between the two JIRA environments must be set up. Once done, a specific Fields Mapping for this operation must be configured.
In this page, we will explore the options available when creating a remote Jira issue :
Issue context
The "Issue context" section of the tab offers the following options:
Project : select the target project where the operation will be created (or a project category).
If you select a project category, the user will have the choice to select a target project from all projects contained into this category.
Issue type : select the issue type of the newly created issue.
Link : If the box is checked, then the two issues will be linked by a basic JIRA link.
It is not possible to select the link type for Remote links.
The fields can be locked as for a Local JIRA issue creation in the pop-up window thanks to 
buttons.
Issue content
The "Issue content" section of the tab offers the following options:
Fields mapping : select a mapping which will pre-fill some of the available fields on the issue creation screen. This field is mandatory.
Attachments : choose whether to copy attachments to the newly created issue. Maximum allowed size is 10MB.
Update source fields : the fields which are selected here will be populated by the configured value on the source issue.
If the remote JIRA issue creation is supposed to be launched during a post-function, make sure all the mandatory fields are filled in.
- Summary is basically a mandatory field
- Depending on the remote JIRA platform configuration, some other fields might be necessarily filled in
- Be sure as well that the Project and Issue type fields are filled in the operation target configuration.
