Hi @Heidi Fry Welcome to Atlassian Community!

It's very easy to setup csv file for epic/story, kindly setup file similar to below table :-

Map Epic Name with Epic Name field, Summary with Summary and Epic Link with Epic Link in csv import.

Issue Type	Epic Name	Summary	Epic Link
Epic	New Release 15.5	iOS new version
Story		New UI	New Release 15.5
Story		New AR	New Release 15.5

I believe you. have to define Epics first, and they need an Epic Name. Then come Story etc issues
