Import existing Jira work items into Jira Product Discovery

You can easily map and import existing Jira work items into Product Discovery using two different methods: bulk move from Jira or using a CSV export/import. Before you begin to import data, you need to either export a CSV containing all data or bulk-move the work items to a Jira Product Discovery project.

Method 1: Use a CSV export/import

Export the data you want to transfer to a CSV file.

1. fIn your Jira project, go to Filters > View all work items, and select the work items you want to export. Learn all about the available types of search.

2. Once you have filtered your work items selection, configure the columns by clicking at the right-hand side of the work items list, and check the fields that you want to keep for the export.

3. At the top of the screen, select Export work items > Export Excel CSV (all fields) if you want to export all work items fields, or choose Export Excel (current fields) to export only the fields you chose.

4. Save the file

Import the CSV file into Jira Product Discovery

1. Go to Create located at the top navigation bar > Import work items.

2. Choose the CSV file you want to use and click Next.

Now you need to follow the wizard. Once the import is completed, you’ll be able to see the list of ideas in your Product Delivery project.

Method 2: Bulk move from Jira

1. To import ideas from an existing project go to Filters > View all work items.

2. Find the work items you want to import. Learn all about the available types of search.

3. At the top right, select () > Bulk change all iwork items.

Now you land in a wizard that will help you to move your work items into a Jira Product Discovery project.
