Creating linked issues

[Eric Brown]

Using the Excel Connector plug-in is it possible to create linked issues?

In other words I would like to use your plug-in to create a set of new issues all linked together. I see that I need to put "%" in the issue key column but this does not allow me to use some sort of issue id in the Issue Link column. 

An example would be to create an Epic issue, with 5 tasks in it, in one import.

This would allow for the creation of Epic templates. Hopefully this is clear enough.

Hi Eric,

It is a nice feature, but it is not possible in Excel Connector. Currently you cannot even create sub-task if the parent issue doesn’t exist :(

We will think about this and check if it is possible to make this “network of links”. For sure there will be some UI problems and it would require some changes in logic.

If anything changes I will let you know.

Cheers,

Łukasz

PS. New version 3.2.11 is coming up soon, so stay tuned!
