How to upload a list of suppliers into Jira

Angus Smith_a22xui

Hi team, how do I upload a list of "suppliers" into a Jira project?

HI @Angus Smith

You would first need to create a custom field in the system to store the suppliers.

Then you can import them via external import cvs option, this requires you to be jira administrator.

Hi @Angus Smith

Can you explain it what do you mean by suppliers? Those should be a new account in Jira?

Hi Sebastian, thanks for responding. By suppliers, I mean companies that we deal with. This particular issue is for our procurement department, so that when they log an issue, they can just select one of the supplier companies we deal with from a drop down in one of the screens. Here are two screenshots as a reference. Suppliers 2.png Suppliers 1.png

I'm afraid that this is not possible to do via rest api (https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-36112). I don't know other solution how you can update CF values in a bulk.

Hi @Angus Smith and @Sebastian Krzewiński ,

See my post and the link to the KB article how this import can be done.
