DoIT Shared Tools - Import your Jira project issues to GitLab

Jira issues can be imported into a GitLab project.

This process requires the assistance of the Shared Tools team. Email st-help@doit.wisc.edu to start a new request. If you do not have an existing GitLab group and project, complete a needs analysis. The team will help you with both requests. 

When you import issues from Jira to GitLab the following issue fields will be included:

  • Title
  • Description
  • Labels
  • Assignee/Users

When Should You Import Jira Issues into GitLab?

  • 50 issues or less: review your backlog, determine what to keep, and manually migrate epics and issues into GitLab
  • More than 50 issues: consider importing the Jira issues and refining your backlog after an import
