People with triage permission to a repository can create an issue from a discussion.

When you create an issue from a discussion, the contents of the discussion post will be automatically included in the issue body, and any labels will be retained. Creating an issue from a discussion does not convert the discussion to an issue or delete the existing discussion. For more information about {% data variables.product.prodname_discussions %}, see [AUTOTITLE](/discussions/collaborating-with-your-community-using-discussions/about-discussions).

Creating an issue from a discussion does not convert the discussion to an issue or delete the existing discussion. It does create a cross-reference between the discussion and the issue so people can navigate between them.
