How to do it…
Perform the following steps to import data from other issue trackers, such as Bitbucket, in-
to JIRA:
1. Navigate to
Administration
|
System
|
External System Import
.
2. Select the source's issue tracker system. We will select
Bitbucket
for this recipe.
3. Click on the
Next
button to authorize the JIRA importer to access data from Bit-
bucket, and when prompted, click on
Authorize
:
4. Map projects from Bitbucket to JIRA projects. For those projects you do not want
to import to JIRA, leave them selected with the
Don't import this project
option.
Click on
Next
to continue.
After you have clicked on
Next
, JIRA will query Bitbucket to get an export of set-
tings such as fields and values so that they can be used to map JIRA counterparts.
This process may take a few minutes depending on the size of your Bitbucket pro-
ject.
