We had a separate 2 Exalate connection(Script) to sync STORY and BUG from  project A to project B in same Jira(cloud) both connection running from quick a long time and have 108 issues under sync.

Now we got new requirement to Sync EPIC as a parent and STORY and BUG as child relationship  to EPIC for the same project A and B.

For this new requirement we create new EPIC Exalate connection(script) to sync EPIC, STORY, BUG with parent child relationship. And Disabled old STORY and BUG Connection scripts.

Now this is causing the duplicate issue to us. New EPIC  connection script is not  identifying the old 108 issues already synced by STORY and BUG connection in the  B project.

When we have any update for old issue from project A, New EPIC connection script is creating new issue in project B instead of updating into the old issue.

Connection details.

1. A_to_B For Story connection is Disabled.
2. A_to_B_FOR_BUG  connection is Disabled.
3. A_to_B_EPIC - is enabled.(EPIC,STORY,BUG)
