Boards
Board Creation Permission Prerequisite
Group: atlassian-addons-admin requires ‘Global permission’
Share dashboards and filters
Project role: atlassian-addons-project-access and the project creator require ‘Project permission’ ‘View Projects’ on the created project.
There are currently no official APIs (feature request) available to either duplicate boards or modify board settings. As a result, we are unable to include board cloning functionality as part of the project template. However, we have added the option to create a new basic Kanban or Sprint board for the new project.
If you still require board duplication, we suggest checking out our workaround. If you utilize the automatic created filter that comes with basic boards, you can skip steps 5-8.
In ‘Template settings’ tab, find the row ‘Board’ and click on the edit icon.
Select Kanban or Scrum and click ‘Save’.
The created board filter will
have the project creator as its owner
be shared with the new project
have the JQL filter
project = <PROJECT_KEY> ORDER BY Rank ASC
The board will consist of three columns, namely "To Do", "In Progress", and "Done", and will correspond to project status categories (color).
It is important to note that work management projects will always have a next-gen Kanban board generated.
Clone & Predefine Project Content Overview
The other tabs on the settings modal allow to clone & predefine project content.
