Issue
In the destination field of the Move/Copy/Promote dialog, the dropdown does not list partial entries, so users cannot discover how to move an item to a different folder or controller from the suggestions alone.
Typing a cjp:// path manually works, for example cjp:///Tasks/, but this is not discoverable from the dropdown itself.
Filtering by path prefix also returns no results.
For example, typing cjp:/// shows:
cjp:///Tasks
But narrowing the input to cjp:///T shows no matching entries, even though cjp:///Tasks is a valid match for that prefix.
Environment
-
CloudBees CI on modern cloud platforms - operations center 2.568.3.37907, 2.568.3.37913
-
CloudBees CI on modern cloud platforms - managed controller 2.568.3.37907, 2.568.3.37913
-
CloudBees CI on traditional platforms - operations center 2.568.3.37907, 2.568.3.37913
-
CloudBees CI on traditional platforms - client controller 2.568.3.37907, 2.568.3.37913
Explanation
The destination field of the Move/Copy/Promote dialog uses the cjp:// URI scheme to address items anywhere in a CloudBees CI cluster, as described in Retrieve the CJP and Jenkins URI of an Item.
Typing cjp:/// lists the root-level items reachable from operations center, and typing additional characters is expected to filter that list to the matching entries, regardless of whether they are controllers, folders, or cluster operations.
The new Move/Copy/Promote UI shipped in the September 2026 release with a broken filter: narrowing the input by typing additional characters returned no matches.
Resolution
Upgrade to CloudBees CI version 2.580.1.38223 or newer to resolve this issue.
Workaround
If you cannot upgrade immediately:
-
In the Move/Copy/Promote destination field, type the full
cjp://path manually instead of selecting it from the dropdown, for examplecjp:///<controller-name>/<folder-name>.
This workaround requires knowing the full cjp:// path in advance, since the destination dropdown does not filter or list all entries until you upgrade.
