Script import configuration-csv file ?

[Boris Demain]

Hi community !

I have to import many projet to Jira with CSV.

Among issues I got Old users as reporter. I don't want create this users in my Jira instance.

How can I import only active User ?

I thought to use CSV configuration file to like that : 

"Créé par" : {
"jira.field" : "reporter",
"userChanged" : "false",
"manualMapping" : "true"
},

"config.value.mappings" : {
"Créé par" : {
if "User active 1" : "New Login User 1",
"User active 2" : "New Login User 2",
else "*" : "Migration"
}
}

I got the liste of users. But I don't have any result with that solution, cause ok "*"

Maybe their is a better one.

Hi Boris,

Why not create an admin user or "old projects user" or something to that effect. And then import them under that user?

Hi, thank you John !

Two reasons... first I didn't thought about that ^^

Second I would be more efficient with less chance of mistake (I need to do manual entry).

If their is no other solution, I will do it.

Thanks again.
