Jira Bulk Change: Edit Many Work Items at Once

Описание и применение

В Jira Cloud массовое изменение задач осуществляется через встроенное окно, ограниченное 1000 элементами, с проверкой JQL и необходимыми правами. Для пользователей без глобального разрешения доступны инструменты Script Toolkit, а повторяющиеся операции можно автоматизировать через Jira Automation.

Задача

Bulk editing of many Jira work items is cumbersome and risky without a clear process and proper permissions.

Результат

Bulk changes can be performed safely up to 1,000 items per run, with clear limits, permission checks, and no undo. Script Toolkit extends capabilities to 5,000 items per run without granting global bulk permission.

Рабочий процесс

• 1. Search for target issues using JQL or filters.
• 2. Verify result count and preview a few items.
• 3. Open More actions (•••) > Bulk change all work items.
• 4. Choose operation (Edit, Transition, Move, Delete, Watch).
• 5. Set operation details (fields, transitions, notifications).
• 6. Confirm and monitor progress.
• 7. Review affected items and reports for consistency.
