How can I connect my MySql database with Cloud JIRA Database?

Ashish Sharma_rflvmo

I have my own MySql database and that DB is having the list of Issues in one of the table. I want to access the Database of our Cloud JIRA and want to insert the issues of MySql DB into the cloud JIRA DB.

Is there any API available for us to do so? How can we start with our requirement?

Atlassian Cloud has a REST API, but there is no way to access the underlying database.  If you're trying to do a one-time import, it might be easiest to save the MySQL data as tab delimited text and use the JIRA Cloud CSV importer.
