What is the easiest way to transfer our (Bug) database from Zoho to JIRA?

[Dylan Stevenson]

We are a small company that is switching from Zoho to JIRA. Our database consists of thousands of bugs.

Is there are way to transfer the database from Zoho to JIRA that is easier than manually adding each bug back in?

If so what are the steps. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I believe you can export your Zoho data as CSV. You can then use JIRA's importer to perform a CSV import.

Nice. This sounds like it will work. I will be trying this in the next week when conversion has started and report back here.

Thanks for the info!

how do you export comments with attachments and embedded images from Zoho to Jira.  CSV does not do that.

We are planning to move from Zoho to JIRA. Is there an import tool that would get all the contents as @Roger Robb had requested?

It would really save us a lot of time and effort.

I need more help on this. I need to be able to export the comments, activities and attachments in Zoho. That's where most of the meat for our cases exist. The csv export I can find only exports the title, description, status, etc. Has anyone found a way to export comments and attachments and can that be imported in Jira?

Hi,

Did you find any solution to this(export the comments, activities and attachments)?

[Dylan Stevenson]

This worked. There’s some tedious other things that need to be done (i.e. assigning and recreating users etc) but this definitely saved me some time.

Thanks!
