Can we import the requirements directly from csv file? Same as we do import the test cases ?

[MARIE ABI AKL]

We have all the requirements written in excel/CSV format and we wish to import them all at the same time. No manual intervention. 

This import is available for the test cases, can we do it with the requirements?

Hi Marie - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Are the requirements just in a Jira field? Would you be creating new issues or updating existing issues? 

Either way, yes, you should be able to do that with Requirement likes is done with test cases.

Please respond here in the thread so that other users can follow the conversation. 

What is RTM? What does it look like when you create a new Requirement manually?

[MARIE ABI AKL]

Please find below a screenshot how a new requirement looks like. 

RTM stands for Requirements and Test Management for jira and it is used to organize and track testing efforts within any Jira Cloud project.

So, not sure about the Folder and ID, but you could give it a shot. Thinking it should work for you. Try with a single issue first. 

[MARIE ABI AKL]

I tried but there is no possibility, please see below the available actions

But when we want to import test cases, we have the possibility (import from csv)

 

Thus my question is there any other available way to import requirements?

[John Funk]

You can still go to Settings > System > External System Import > CSV and try that way.

hi John, 

It worked, thank you :)

[John Funk]

Great! Glad to hear.

Hi John, 

Thank you :) 

The requirements are just jira fields yes. 

Just note that we are using RTM since our jira is on cloud. 

Is it possible to import the requirements? if yes, how ?
