Create project from a template 5.0.6

If an Administrator has given you the Create Projects permission, you can create a new project by following these simple steps:

1. Select Create Project From Template from the Projects menu.
   

2. Select one of the templates your Administrator has made available to you and then click its corresponding Create project button. (The items you see on this screen will not necessarily be the same as what is shown below.)
   
   
   

   Project templates in inactive mode are not displayed in this window.

3. Provide the project details. Note that if you click Use a different avatar, a screen is presented after you click Submit so that you can select or upload a different avatar.
   

   • Fields marked with * are mandatory. An error is displayed and you cannot proceed further if you do not provide values in these fields.
   • Notice that Project Key is generated automatically as you provide Project Name.
   • A user can be selected as a Project Owner. If no user is selected, the project creator becomes the Project Owner.
   • A project role can be selected through the Project Role dropdown to assign that project role to the project creator.
4. Click Create to create the project (or click Back to return to the previous screen, or click Cancel to cancel your request).
5. When you have provided all project details, click Submit to create the project. The project is created and a confirmation page is displayed.
   
   

After step 4, you may notice that if the Administer Projects permission is not granted to the Project Lead in the Permission Scheme, the project is still created and a confirmation page is displayed.

6. If the guidelines are configured by Jira Administrator, those are visible on the "Project Created" screen under "What's next?" section.

7. If in case the license of the app got expired or became inactive, a warning message is shown upon clicking on the 'Create project' button.
