Changing the Project Key

Miki Yuzawa April 12, 2012

My team is using on-demand version of JIRA. I mistakenly created a wrong key for one of our projects, and I really need to change it. Is there any way that I can change the key?

Regards,

Miki

You can create a project with the correct key and bulk move your issues, pages, etc. over to that one, then delete the old one.

(Moving a parent page will move all the child pages.)

Ahh...I see. Well, it will be a bit of work, but I will do that. Thank you!

According to this document in STEP 2 it is stated that you cannot change the project key . There is a workaround available for jira download , not sure but may be you can apply that to your Ondemand instance. Hope it helps :)
