How to Change Project Key in Jira
Changing a project key in Jira is a straightforward process but requires project admin or Jira admin permissions. Here’s how to do it:
- Select the project for which you want to change the key.
- Once in the project, click on 'Project settings' in the left-hand menu.
- In the 'Details' page, you'll see the 'Project Key' field.
- Edit the 'Project Key' field to the new desired key.
- Click 'Save' to apply the changes.
- This change can only be done if you're a Jira admin or have the necessary permissions, and it cannot be undone easily. Make sure the new project key is what you want before saving the changes.
