Templates on Issue View

How to apply templates right from the Issue View? Let's get into it.

You can apply templates in the issue view from fields Add a Child Issue or Add a Subtask, without changing the view. It is a massive facilitation during planning meetings and for all teams working with boards.

Due to Atlassian limitations, templates can't be applied from the backlog "Create Issue" option at the moment. Is this a crucial functionality for you? Let us know and we will see what can be done!

How to use issue templates on the issue view?

When the simplified task creation panel is displayed, it does not show the create issue view, only the summary bar. In this case, a workaround is required. This situation applies specifically to the issue view - adding child issues to epics and creating subtasks for selected tasks.

In order to apply templates at this level, it is necessary for the Create Issue dialogue to open up - this can be done by setting a minimum of one required field on Create issue (it can be the Template field, but it does not have to). This way, templates can still be used to create an issue, not just by clicking the Create button from the top navigation bar.
