Import error: "Fatal error during import: Parent Issue cannot be null"

Trevor Keppel-Jones

How do I import a single file that contains Tasks and Sub-tasks? I've followed the directions in this article: https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver073/importing-data-from-csv-861253680.html#ImportingDatafromCSV-PreparingyourCSVfile

The "Creating Sub-tasks" section lays out the file format but I'm getting the above error. Can someone post a sample Task and Sub-task file?

Thanks,
Trevor.

what's your data look like?  It's possible your issueid and parentid's are not setup correctly.  also ordering matters, make sure the parent is above children in your file.
