You are not going to use CSV when creating issue through REST you should be using JSON formatting for the body. The documentation is here with a sample:

Hi Advania, The problem I have is,  I have lot of tickets probably in 1000s to be created. So it will be easier if its in excel. I wont be able to create it from JSON. Any other options for me?
