Import Checklists from Checklist for Jira

Multiple checklists 🔢

• Unlike our product, Issue Checklist allows users to have more than one checklist. When importing, the different checklist names will be formatted into <h1> header.

Separators 📏

• "Separators" in the Issue Checklists are similar to our headers functionality. They start with ---

• A separator will be formatted to <h2> header.

Statuses to do

• It's highly recommended to manually create the same custom statuses you had in Issue Checklist in Smart Checklist before the import.

• If, during import, some statuses are missing, they will default to TODO.

Links 🔗

• If additional mailto data (subject, body, etc.) is available in the brackets, <> will be added at the start/end of each link with a space.

❓What happens when an importing fails?

Each project imports independently. So, whenever an importing fails, it will fail only for that specific project. Then, also, we halt the importing for that project.

❓One of my imports failed in the middle of the process. Is it possible to roll back?

No.

❓Only one of my projects failed to import. Is it necessary to re-run the importing on all of them?

No, you can enable only the projects you want to import. Remember that.

❓If I try to re-import, will I have duplicates?

Unfortunately, yes. There is an option to check "Override existing Smart Checklist items" that will replace all existing checklist items with the new imported values.

❓What should I do if the app says that migration has finished, but my custom fields aren't updated yet?

Custom fields are updated in a background job after importing, so it might take a little longer than the importing itself. However, you can always “Synchronize storages" to sync custom fields.
