Bulk ticket uploader
The bulk ticket uploader enables you to upload multiple tickets from a CSV file to DevRev. It's useful when migrating tickets from a third-party system to DevRev or creating tickets in bulk from a CSV file.
For detailed information about DevRev tickets, refer to Tickets.
Validations while creating tickets
The following validations are done while importing or creating a ticket in DevRev:
- A maximum of 50 tickets can be created at once. If more than 50 tickets are listed in a CSV file, the system doesn't upload any tickets.
- The title field is mandatory. Rows with blank titles are skipped.
- A ticket isn't created if a part or user ID mentioned in a row doesn't exist. Other tickets aren't impacted by this.
- If the CSV lists multiple owners, only the first is set as the owner in the DevRev ticket.
How to use bulk ticket uploader

From the Select tickets' owners (max 1) drop-down menu, select the ticket's owner name.

From the Select a part to assign to tickets drop-down menu, select a part for the tickets. If the bulk ticket upload is done using a part, the part is automatically selected.

The Ticket Creator Bot processes the CSV file and creates tickets with the defined parameters. The newly created tickets are listed displaying the ticket number and title.
