Hi Robby, you should be able to do that: when you add a delivery ticket to an idea it creates a link between those 2 Jira issues with a a specific link type "implements/is implemented by"
You can import those via a CSV import: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Linking-issues-from-a-CSV-import/qaq-p/2579648
Hello Tanguy,
In the CSV import process, I don't see a way to set the specific link type "implements/is implemented by". There is an option for "Link "Discovery issue link" but that does not show a delivery ticket after importing a new Idea.

Hi Robby, I tried a few different things and found one way to make it work with manual work. Basically you need to first import the ideas, and then import the issue links separately:
I've just tested and it worked for me.
It's brutal - we'll need to find a way to make it easier. the problem is that while the import tool lets you select the link type, it doesn't let you choose the direction of that link ("Polaris link type" = "implements" for the delivery ticket and "is implemented by" for the idea). Also we need to rename these links so their name actually means something that people can understand......

Hello Tanguy,
Thank you for the proposed workaround. All is clear except I don't have a field I can map to called "Polaris issue link".

if you scroll all the way to the bottom you should find it (searching for it in the dropdown doesn't work for some reason...)

Hello Tanguy,
There is no value in the mapping list with the name "Polaris issue link".

Hello Tanguy,
Assuming Link "Discovery datapoint issue link" is the correct mapping field, this test did not work for me. I successfully created a link in the Epic back to the JPD Idea, but it does not automatically create the delivery ticket in the Idea. I assume I am not required to run 2 separate imports to establish a delivery ticket link.

@Robby Keefer that's what I see. What do you see?
Maybe a Jira admin deleted the issue link type? In this case, I think we automatically recreate it when you create a project or when you add a delivery ticket to an idea.

Okay, that'll be "Discovery issue link"

Hello Tanguy,
It's good to know that I'm using the correct mapping field, but the technique you suggested did not work for me.

What do you see as link type in the Epic?
If you open the epic, I'd expect to see a section called "implements" with the idea there.
If it's not the case, and you see "is implemented by" it means that in your case the issue link type is setup the other way around and you should be able to import the relationship directly in the discovery project using the same method (and if that's the case, I'm sorry for sending you on a wild goose chase!)
If none of that works, please book some time so we can troubleshoot that together: https://calendly.com/tcrusson/30min-1

Hi Robby,
Could you elaborate on what you're trying to achieve?

Hello Pieter,
I am trying to migrate a series of Jira issues into Discovery via the External System Import process (CSV Import). When a new Discovery Idea is created, I want to also create a link it to the related Jira Epic/Story as a delivery ticket. I have the Jira Issue Key, but have not had any luck adding a delivery ticket when creating a new Idea via the CSV Import.
