[Clare-Octopus]

Severity

Blocking customers from cloning a Project Step into a Runbook

Version

2025.1.2648, 2024.4.6948

Latest Version

I could reproduce the problem in the latest build

What happened?

When trying to clone a project deployment process step into the same project runbook you get the error:

Error: Attempted to modify a process that isn't a deployment process

Reproduction

1. Create a project with a basic step in it and save the step.
2. Create a runbook in that same project.
3. Go back to the Project Deployment step we created in step 1 and try clone it into the runbook we created in step 2.
4. See error in the UI.

Workaround

None at the moment you could create the step manually for the runbook and copy the details across manually from the Project Deployment Process step.
