Solution

Follow these steps to update the resolve date for the already resolved issue keys.

  • Create a CSV file using the format shown below

    1 2 issuekey,summary,resolution,resolvedate TOC-9,testing,Done,2016-03-01
  • You should map the field to 'Resolve date' in the CSV mapping screen

  • In the above example we have picked the Date format as YYYY-DD-MM. Jira importer supports JAVA date formats and you can choose the format while importing the CSV.

    Note

    • If the resolve date format is correct, it imports as specified in the CSV file.

    • If the resolve date format is not correct, it imports as the current date. Please verify that the CSV file has the same date format.

    • This option will only work with External System import, available for Jira admin only
