Description

This provides some tips on how to work around getting a Plan names must be unique error on the movePlans action. Unfortunately, Bamboo has some unnecessary limitations when moving plans.

Example  

0 plans moved out of a total of 20 before a failure occurred. Plan names must be unique

Tip - Finding the plan with a duplicate name

The CLI, by default, moves larger chunks of plans at the same time. This makes it hard to determine what plans have duplicate names. Use the limit parameter to limit the number of plans moved at once. Use –limit 1 and repeat the movePlans request. This will move one plan at a time until it reaches the plan that is causing the difficulty.

-a movePlans --project XXX --toProject YYY --limit 1

Once the plan with the duplicate name is found. Modify its name to something else.

-a updatePlan --plan XXX-PLAN --name "New name"
