You can export your YouTrack data to CSV to import it to Jira.

In order to create a CSV file you need to select the Issues in CSV option from your reports menu in YouTrack. Make sure to prepare the search criteria first so that exported data set is exactly what you want to have imported into Jira. Save the resulting CSV file.

Hi @aynura.nasibova 

You could download the issues into a csv ( https://www.jetbrains.com/help/youtrack/standalone/export-issues-csv-excel-format.html) and then import them into Jira from there.

You will need to explore how to map the Fields but it should be a quick way to add them all when you're happy with the import process. (https://support.atlassian.com/jira-core-cloud/docs/create-issues-using-the-csv-importer/)

this does not export parent/child relationships of stories and epics
