Export Confluence Pages Into JIRA as Issues

Hi,

I'm trying to find the best way to export/move/convert a series of Confluence pages into JIRA where each page is its own issue within JIRA.

For example, I have about 150 pages within Confluence and each of these pages have requirements documented within them. What I want to is this:

 

Confluence Page Title -> JIRA Issue Summary

Confluence Page Content -> JIRA Issue Description

I know you can highlight content in Confluence and it will give you the option to create a JIRA ticket based on the highlighted content, but that's going to be problematic when we have hundreds of pages we need to do this for.

Can anyone provide recommendations for the most efficient way of doing this? Ideally without some plugin, but I'd certainly look at plugin solutions as well.

Dear @Imran Virk,

use the REST API, to read from Confluence and create issues in Jira. Works for 100% but  you need some coding skills.

So long

Thanks Thomas, I had considered that but was hoping for a solution that didn't require any development by my team. Seems like that's what we will have to do though as I haven't found anything else that would help.

I appreciate your feedback!

Dear @Imran Virk,

I would say this is a piece of cake for your team. Would estimate around 1 or 2 days max to script this.

So long

Thomas
