Hello singh_kaushambi,
as far as I can see today import of WI's is only possible using the bugzilla import feature. If you need to import from some other source you can try to get that content into a bugzilla format and use this or create a client extension that does this for you. If you think there should be a wizard e.g. to import CSV files check is such a workitem already exists and if not, I'd suggest to create one. Ralph How can we import query in work item?

Hello singh_kaushambi,
Hi Kaushambi, as I think i said, there is only export to CSV. There is no import available from CSV at this time being. There is only the bugzilla import available at this time. This would be a work item you should generate if you like to see such an import option. Having said that - I had a customer situation recently where I needed to import Workitems and potentially update existing ones. So I wrote an importer that imports CSV and updates the workitem in case it exists. Based upon the code shipping with the plain java API snippets it was no big deal. I see two possible ways if you need to import CSV. Create a bugzilla conform zip from the CSV or create an importer. BTW, I would like to but I can't send the importer I built because there is a customer name in the package code. Refactoring would take a while. Also the importer is lacking a lot of UI code. I basically would have to write the wizardpages to set a project, team area and some other information. I will eventually do that but lack the time right now. Ralph Hi Ralph, |

Can we have an example on how do we import query which is stored in CSV form after being exported.The URL in point no.1 doesn't actually clearly explain on how to import.I tried using the steps given in URL but couldn't actually succeed.I tried mapping the fields against what I have declared in my project area but everytime it takes the default mapping from 'eclipse_bugs_10000_10020.zip' mentioned in the URL. It basically tells about the bugzilla report.Would be great if this could be explained with an example.Also,I completely agree with point no.3 that if we are exporting using CSV or HTML format, why don't we have ready format for import as well.Please answer this question.

Is the import and export of a query supported in 2.0.Can we export the query(in .qry format) from one project area and import in the same format in another project area? This was not supported in 1.0.1.1v and as far as I can see in 2.0, it is still not supported. Please confirm.
