Update fields values in Jira using CSV file

[Konstantinos Antonakopoulos]

Hello!

I have imported some Requirements in Jira and need to update several values in the requirements based on Requirement ID.

I have a CSV file with the Requirement ID and the updated values.

My question is if it is possible to update the existing requirements using the CSV file and the Requirement ID as a matching key?

Best, Konstantinos

Hi Konstantinos - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

You would still need to map it to the issue key that has the Requirements information. But you should be able to do that, yes.

ok, suppose I can have the issue key in the CSV file to be able to match the records. How do I do it?

Just include a column in your CSV for the issue key and map it to the Jira issue key. 

Here is a guide. Be sure to look at the section on Updating existing issues.
