For the first part of course, I have request type for every issue type but to import form CSV I must know two things first the field name that I need to fill (request type filed and it is system filed but I don't know its name in the mapping screen) second the value that I need to import and it is some how no easy is there any way from script runner to get this value ?

for the automation rule Iam using datacenter version 4.20.8 and I don't find scheduled automation rule is it exist in my version ?

Well; it is essential that you do have request types configured for the issue type you are trying to create. If you're unsure if this is all properly set up, check Atlassian documentation to learn more.

As an alternative, instead of doing complex manipulations to get the csv import right, you could also consider setting up an automation rule to update the request types of issues that do not have them properly filled out. You can use a scheduled automation rule to check for issues that don't have a request type filled out and use conditional logic (based on issue types) to fill out the missing request types.

The basic rule could look like this:

Of course, you'll need to define proper rules to map the right request types to their matching issue types.
