Boards (Custom Template: Software Development)
Company-managed Jira software projects are famous for their customizable boards. Sadly as there are currently no official APIs (feature request) available to either duplicate boards we can not yet offer the possibility to clone boards. Instead the app offers the option to create basic boards or provide a way to simplify and guide the board cloning process after project creation.

It is important to note that work management projects will always have a next-gen Kanban board generated and Jira native templates for software development projects come with their own boards. |
Simplified custom board cloning (Default)

...
After creating a new template based on ‘Custom Template: Software Development’, the app selects ‘Simplified custom board cloning’ by default and takes the source project key as search term for boards. (There are not even API’s to get the board names…)
...
Providing the necessary filter reduces the amount of steps to clone boards by half. And displaying the remaining steps directly after project creation when user need them makes it as straightforward as it can be right now. (Please vote for Board API’s feature request, we would love to automate the cloning for you!)
Basic Boards
In case you want to start with a basic Scrum or Kanban board inside new software development projects. Select either one of those options in the templates settings under ‘Board’.
