Unable to upload Test case to XRay

Hi Community,

I’m trying to upload manual test cases into Jira XRay using the CSV import template. I’ve followed the format as per the documentation and specified "Manual" as the value for the Test Type field, which I understand is valid.

However, I’m encountering an error during the upload process. The error message is unclear, and I’ve double-checked the following:

  • The issue type is set to “Test”
  • The project has XRay issue types enabled
  • All required fields (Summary, Test Type, Steps) are filled
  • The CSV file is UTF-8 encoded

Error as below

{
"errors": [
{
"elementNumber": 1,
"errors": [
{
"xray": "Test type not present"
}
]
},

Has anyone faced a similar issue or can suggest what might be causing the error?
Also, is there a way to validate the CSV file before uploading to catch formatting issues?

Any help would be appreciated!

Seems like this is working now. But I get now a different error

{
"errors": [
{
"elementNumber": 0,
"errors": {
"otherErrors": [
"No operation with name 'set' found. Valid operations are: ADD,SET,REMOVE,EDIT,COPY"
]
}
},

Hi @Thirunaga Palanichamy 

Welcome to the community.

What does you CSV look like, does it contain a column that specifies the test typ, which then states manual?

This is mandatory on import

I am aware it is mandatory. In my CSV, I have a column name "Test Type" with value "Manual". Also in Xray settings, I already added the values "Manual" and "Automated".

Have you used the demo CSV from the Xray documentation, the naming needs to be accurate.

Do you also have an id column and a key column, specifying the issue key of the Test issue in Jira.

See an example: https://docs.getxray.app/space/XRAYCLOUD/44565062/Importing+Tests+using+Test+Case+Importer
