Projects beta: Convert issue back to draft

[jfritz]

I would appreciate a way to convert an issue back to "draft issue" state. I can add a repository column and bring an issue out of draft + move it to a repo by changing the "Repository" column.

Is there a way to null out the repository column to bring an issue back to draft state (and moving it back under the parent organization out of the repo)?

Same! I'm seeing this problem in Sept 15, 2022.

I need this feature too. Currently, I'm deleting the issue if I mistakenly assign it a repo. There is no other way to erase or edit assinged repo.

Really inconvenient that this is not possible out of the box, and that the issue is here opened for almost a year.

[simonebeets]

This functionality would definitely be useful.

[Nana2929]

Please I need this feature as well. Deeply need it if about to copy a project. All cards converted to issue are not copied and it causes so many troubles and pains.

[giolvani]

I am waiting for this feature as well...

I wholeheartedly agree having the ability to revert an issue back to a draft could significantly enhance our workflow management.

[endodod]

Either I was blind or it's still not possible...

[edsonh]

Same happened to me today

[F-WRunTime]

Still not a feature...

[ghost]

Absolutely! Would appreciate if could reverse the conversion, made by mistake, back, hopefully this year?

[erdogmush]

Same here. This feature is needed, not necessarily covert back to draft, but recreate a draft from a copy of it. It feels like this is reasonably easy to implement.

I am also in desperate need of back-to-draft

Would definitely help with cleaning up!

[Rob-Ashworth]

I came across this problem too. Only "fix" is to delete it and start again

[cgarren]

I would also love for this to be possible. It's a huge annoyance when you accidentally create an issue from an issue draft or change your mind

I am not sure why this is marked as the answer. But it's not implemented yet, and I could also use it.

When copying project it's only possible to copy the draft issues, so if I want to copy a project and all it's issues it's only possible if all of the issues are draft issues

[jfritz]

I'm selecting an answer that's not an answer because github doesn't really care to respond here. This isn't a product-first product development product. It helps with organizing cards on a board and Github doesn't care about product owner features.

[angu-voy]

Please implement this.

[KristofaJosh]

I mean, this has been since 2022, can this be implemented already?

[kulterryan]

this isn't implemented yet!
