Bulk Upload - Original Estimate and Story Points

Lakshmi Priya_2rig72

During the bulk upload of csv , can we also update the Original Estimate and Story Points.

As far as i know there is no value to map. Can someone advise if we could tackle this anyway ?

Hi @Lakshmi Priya 

I assume you are using the User Importer, located in....

• Filters > Advanced Issue Search
• Options (3-dots icon) > Import Issues from CSV

...?

If yes, these fields aren't available via this Import Tool - which is a limited version of the Admin one.

You can set both Original Estimate and Story Points using the Admin Import Tool. You'll need to be a Jira Admin to use it, and then go to:

• Jira Settings (cog icon in top-right)
• Select System
• Select External System Import from the left-hand menu

This help page has some great information about how to use the Admin tool - including how to format "Original Estimate"

The value of this field needs to be specified as number of seconds.
