    When the light falling on a plant changes suddenly, it causes a massive upheaval in the plants' systems. They try to get rid of as many leaves as possible to compensate for the reduction in energy, etc. That's why the best practice is to accustom plants to light changes slowly. We call that acclimating them. Here's an article that will help you do that without such a shock to your plants. https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/houseplants/hpgen/acclimate-plants-indoors-winter.htm
    PS you can take your plant back outside now, then continue with the acclimating process.

    Glyphosate compounds don't work well on drought resistant plants because the leaves are too tough. Try glufosinate or tricolpyr compounds; dicamba might be worth a try, also. This list explains more: https://extension.tennessee.edu/publications/Documents/W244.pdf

    Generally speaking, when a flowering plant has beautiful green growth but no flowers it's because there's too much nitrogen and/or not enough phosphorous. A second common cause is too little sun.

    How often does the plant get watered? Is it possible it has been under or over-watered? Feel the soil - is it dry to the touch (it is under-watered and needs water) or is it damp/wet (it is over-watered - cut down on watering)? If it has been over-watered, you should re-pot the plant in fresh potting soil after you inspect and prune any damaged roots.

    If hydration is not the problem, your jasmine could be suffering from a fungal disease and I have included a link for you to review below.

    Basically it depends on how cold the winter. Some varieties of jasmine have the potential to retain their winter leaves, but only so long as temperatures do not dip below a certain point. Confederate jasmine, for example, is an evergreen variety that will keep its leaves unless temperatures dip below 15F.
