jira import linked issue

[Jiannan Tang]

Hi,

I want to import issue to JIRA, and the issue field contain jira issue link.

I use the csv import, but didn't found Linked Issue field.

Does the import plugin support it?

Hi Tang

Unfortunately, CSV Import doesn't support issue links -- this is a limitation by design on JIRA Importers Plugin. There's an opened feature request for including this functionality in JIRA Importers Plugin, but there's no release date yet. You can see it on the issue JIM-640.

Please feel free to vote on it to increase its popularity and don't forget to add yourself as watcher to receive any latest updates from the developer and feedback from other users that is facing the same problem as well.

Cheers :)

How to Import Issue Links from a CSV File

[Pawel Niewiadomski]

Use JSON (beta) format to link issues. It's available in recent versions of JIRA Importers Plugin. Check https://confluence.atlassian.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=293830712 to see how issues can be linked (there's a sample JSON file with links).
