Today my import to JIRA is failing due to Reporter not a user error

Question

2018-08-20 14:00:20,738 INFO - Creating issue: [externalId='autoid-1249594710179245748', summary='As an Administrator, I want to access the administration menu option so that I can access the administrator features.']
2018-08-20 14:00:20,867 ERROR - Issue can't be created due to the error/s [ The reporter specified is not a user. ]

I have created a CSV file to import to JIRA for my Issue type Story. I used the same layout of the CVS file as I used last week.  When I run the varification or the import I get the message, see above. that my reporter is not a user.   I am the project admin and this worked last week.

Thanks for any help you may provide

I discovered that my issue was that I was attempting to load a number of issues (stories) with one import that included multiple Epics.  I coded the Epics in the import file but it seems that JIRA took exception to this. When I broke the file down to import one EPIC at a time I did not run into this error.  Maybe, an undocumented feature/

Moses,

Ok, I understand your point, but I used the same Excel layout last week and I imported three files without an issue. Nothing has changed and I contracted my JIRA administrator and she said she had not made any changes. I show up on the issues last week as the reporter. The permission has “Any logged in user” can create an issue.
