From corals to jellyfish, the most common method of sexual reproduction is broadcast fertilization. However, most species also use asexual cloning during early stages of their lives, cloning new polyps that become individuals of a colony, or differentiate into a colony of specialized, symbiotic polyps. Some polyps 'bud', or clone, themselves into free swimming medusae, before using sexual reproduction as an adult to propagate offspring .
And then some corals are hermaphrodites and some cubozoans actually copulate, sort of, wrapping their tentacles around each other and transferring gametes into the female gastrovascular cavity. Some jellyfish brood their offspring and others simply release gametes into the sea during an aggregation of adults. So the answer to your question is rather diverse and complicated.
