How can you create several issues with similar information in Jira?

Creating several issues with similar information in Jira is effectively accomplished through the bulk create option. This feature allows users to input multiple issues in a single operation, which is especially useful when you need to create numerous issues that share common attributes or details.

Using the bulk create functionality, a user can define standard fields for multiple issues, which can streamline the process and ensure consistency across all created issues. This helps to save time and reduces the potential for error compared to creating each issue individually.

While cloning an issue allows you to make a copy of a single issue and its details, it does not support the creation of multiple distinct issues in one action, making it less efficient for bulk tasks. Copying a project is unrelated to issue creation and focuses instead on replicating an entire project structure, which wouldn't provide the desired result of generating several similar issues. Exporting and importing issues could theoretically create multiple issues, but it involves additional steps and is more cumbersome compared to the straightforward bulk create functionality.
