I have a CSV containing issues to be imported. Need to know if there is an API available to perform the same task as done via Jira UI Bulk Import.

Hello @Cherif, Debloc 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

No, there is not an API to create issue in bulk based on a CSV file.

You could write a script that parses the CSV file and uses the available issue creation APIs to create the issues. There is a Bulk Issue Create API, but it does not take in a CSV file as input. You would need to convert your CSV to a comparable JSON format.
