Change date of issue creation

[Cihat Haktanır]

Hello I need to create past time project in jira. I finished project but in jira I need to define issues by past time. For example I will create an issue in 25 Feb 2019. Is it possible how can I do this ? I'm using Jira Cloud.

Hi @Cihat Haktanır ,

Post project creation you can use Importing data from CSV to create issues with old dates.

For example csv file looks below.

key, created, summary
TST-30002,"30/11/13 00:00",TEST

 Please refer below documentation for more details.

this is not possible. it is set when you actually create it. The only exception is that you can set the date when importing an issue. You might consider a custom date field.

this is very inconvenient and redundant
