    Hi ​@adrianO, I was recently able to successfully convert an Issue (optask) to a Project using the Workfront API in Postman. Here’s what worked for me:

    • Set your HTTP method to PUT.
    • Use the following endpoint format:
      https://<yourDomain>.my.workfront.com/attask/api/v17.0/optask/<ISSUE_ID>?action=convertToProject
      Replace <yourDomain> with your Workfront domain and <ISSUE_ID> with the actual Issue ID.
    • Set the header Content-Type to application/json.
    • Add authentication as required, e.g., apiKey or sessionID.
    • In the request body (raw, JSON), include:
      {
      "project": {
      "name": "Your New Project Name"
      }
      }
      You can add more fields inside the "project" object if needed.
    • Send the request.

    If everything is set up correctly, the Issue will be converted to a Project, and you’ll receive the new project details in the response.
