Hi Jakub

To create sub-tasks, you can use 2 extra fields in file:

  • In your file you should use 2 additional columns whose headings should be named similarly to Issue Id and Parent Id.
  • Ensure each regular (non sub-task) issue is given a unique (sequential) number in the Issue Id column. Do not include any value in the Parent Id fields for regular issues.
  • To create a sub-task of a regular issue (or to link an issue with other) in your file, reference the unique Issue Id number of the regular issue in the Parent Id column. Do not include any value in the Issue Id fields for sub-tasks

Regards!

Hello Aylin,

 

Thank you for your answer. I prepare exel file, can you check it is ok?

 

Where:

TEST1, TEST2, TEST3 was another projects.

 

OK, I made some investigation and I must put 2 additionally column, like PROJECT NAME and PROJECT KEY.

 

It's clear for me, I put these 2 new column, but if I import data I have a Setting window where I have Import to Project    option.

 

And I don't know what I must put there, because it's Required Field and I cannot leave it blank.
