Export issue structures

Sending issue structures feature allows user to send whole structures of newly created issues connected together at once, without creating parent issue first. Thanks to this feature you can create task and include subtask issue types. It works on temporary/virtual issue ID’s which are converted to issue keys when sending changes to Jira.

It doesn’t support relations with Epics. Only parent - child.

How to use it:

  1. In sheet managed by app, use “Create(1) button, to start creating new issue, remember to fill all required fields (2) marked with dark green color. (In details: Create new issue )

    1. In screenshot you can see 1 new issue of issue type “Story” and 2 “Sub-task” issue types

  2. Connect child issues using “Parent column (3) using “temporary issue IDfrom parent task (4) - Those ID’s will change into Jira issue keys, when changes are sent.

  3. Next use “Export(5) button to create prepared issues in Jira.
