    Possible use cases
    This script copies all of the forms, including values which have been entered in form fields, from one issue to another. All related form information such as the current status (open/submitted/locked), format and conditions will be maintained.
    This script can be useful for passing information when creating related issues, or child issues. It can also be used in a regular transitions to pass information between teams who are working on a coordinated effort (such as HR, Facilities and IT teams working to onboard new employees).
    Limitations
    • The script will override any forms on the destination issue.
    • Users performing the action needs to have edit issue permissions for both issues.
    • This script will not work if the form is over 32 KB. You can limit the size of your forms by using multiple smaller forms, and by including character/word limits on your text fields.
