Thanks Peter and Yew for the reply. Iam trying to import the XML file created and since the issue type and custom fields are not present in the target instance Iam getting the error. Is there any way I can map it to a different issue type and fields in the target instance OR is there any way it gets created automatically while importing if the issue types and fields are not there in the target ?

Hello Harsha,

as I know, you have to create the issue types, the custom fields and everything else manually before you can import the data.

We made a tool for these tasks, but this tool is for professional support only and not public.

There is another tool available on the marketplace: The project configurator.
