We imported several tasks to over the External System Import feature. so far all worked fine, but now the new tasks are not in the same order in the sprint as they were in the csv.
this is how the tasks are listed in the sprint:
col-114
col-113
col-112
col-111
col-110
and this is how they should be in the sprint:
col-110
col-111
col-112
col-113
col-114
Hi Nina,
Jira Software is keeping track of the order that issues appear on boards, sprints, and backlogs using the custom field called "Rank" in Jira Software. If your source of this CSV data is another Jira Software instances (I presume it is from your description), then it might be possible for you to include the Rank field that appears with each issue in the issue navigator when you create such an export file. That way you could try to import this rank value directly into the new system in order to keep the order of those imported issue consistent. You would just need to map this field during the import process on the new system.
Regards,
Andy
@Nina, Make sure the filter you are using has this at the end:
ORDER BY Rank ASC
This will allow you to drag the issues into the order you want them to be.

hi @Peter DeWitt, thanks for your feedback. we have this setting already set on our backlog and can drag and drop the tasks.
but when we use the importer and import several tasks at once, it's very time consuming to order each of them. so it would be easier to set the ranking in the csv before we import it to jira..

@Nina, If they are coming from another system (not Jira) there may not be much you can do. The problem is that the rank values in Jira look something like this 1|hz4pe7: so you wouldn't be able to add your own.
