Description

When copying an issue security scheme, instead of creating a copy containing the same security levels and their assigned roles/groups, Jira actually creates a blank copy of the scheme but adds the security level definitions to the original scheme.

How to reproduce

1. Go to Jira Settings > Issues > Issue Security Schemes
2. Create an Issue Security Scheme
   • 
3. Create Issue Security Levels and define groups/roles to it
4. Copy the Issue Security Scheme

Expected Results

A copy of the scheme, containing the same security levels and assigned groups/roles is created

Actual Results

A blank scheme is created. The security levels and their definitions are added to the original scheme:

How to fix

Delete the invalid entries from the original scheme manually.

• To identify which entries are invalid, right click the delete button and copy the resulting link. The entries to be deleted are the ones where the schemeID is the id of the copy created.

Additional notes

This may cause duplicate security levels to be displayed when setting this field in issue screens.
