Hi for all!
I need to create a multi select custom field..
The number of options in this custom field will be up to 80...
Q: Are any functionality which I can use to import a list of custom field options into Jira?
Hi @Виктор Островкский,
To achieve this functionality you can use JIRA Command Line Interface(CLI) add-on. You can find some of the examples from the Examples page.
To create the multi-select custom field you need to use the addCustomField parameter action. To add values to the multi-select custom field, you need to use runFromCsv parameter action. You can go through the How to use runFromCsv page.

Hello, Kumar!
Thank you for your reply!
Would you be so kind to support me with applying runFromCsv parameter action?
If my multi-select custom field name is "Certifications",
And if I have csv file (comma-separated values) with list of options:
a1a2b1b2
Please, suggest me a right order of actions with CLI add-on if i want to import up-mentioned options into "Certifications" field.
Thank you very much in advance!
Hi,
You can create all 80 values without add-on by using the import issues by CSV.
generate your self new CSV file with 3 columns:
Create 80 raws in your excel, for exmaple:
Task summary 1 value 1 (your actual value)
Task summary 2 value 2 (your actual value)
Task summary 3 value 3 (your actual value)
Task summary 4 value 4 (your actual value)
Task summary 5 value 5 (your actual value)
And so on....
Use the import issues with CSV, it will create you 80 issues, but the values you put in the column of your customfield, will be updated as values in your Jira.
So after import the CSV simply delete the 80 issues and you don't really need them, you use this only for update field values.
Hi, Nir!

The validation process has found 3 warning/s
Can you please send here screen shot of your CSV file?
