Importing Epics and stories using csv and external system import option

Cecilia Little June 7, 2021

If the Epic names were previously imported and the next CSV file is attempting to load stories using the Epic Links already existing in the project why do I get Errors that the load doesn't know they are Epics.  I noticed that the Epics were in draft status and made them Ready and still got errors on upload.  I am in testing environment and have ~2K stories that need to be tagged with possibly 200 Epics.

Please advise.

Hello @Cecilia Little 

Do I understand correctly that you have executed one import that has just the Epics in it, and you are trying to execute a second import with issues that you want to make children of the previously imported epics?

In the second import, the one for the child issues, how have you specified for each of those issues what its parent Epic issue should be?

Are you importing the data into a Company Managed project or a Team Managed project?
