Can I use a template saved from Company-Managed project in Team-Managed Project?

You can use Jira task templates in team-managed projects. However, there’re some limitations. Here how it works.

Templates are saved per issue types. Assume you saved a template from “Story” issue type of Company-managed project (Project A).

Now, when choosing another Company-managed project (Project B ) in “Create from Template screen, you can also use this template in case if Project B has “Story” issue type in it’s schema.

However, it’s not the case for Team-Managed project.

When “Story” of Project A of Team-Managed project is not the same entity of “Story” of Project B, the “Story” template can not be shared across projects and could be used only within the project that was a source for Template creation.
