Import data

[Francisco Navarro]

Dear community,

Do you know of a method to "import" data to a drop-down list field?

I have a column in an Excel file with more than 300 items that must go into a list-type field. How can I add them all at once? Do you know of an import method?

Hi @Francisco Navarro , thanks for your question. 

Here is a knowledgebase article which explains a solution for this https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/how-to-bulk-import-custom-field-values-for-certain-types-of-custom-field-827123935.html 

Basically, you need to create some dummy issues which you can then delete but it's possibly faster than manually entering 300 options, especially if you already have the CSV file ready. 

Hope this helps you.

Cheers
