This week, Backlog gets a new way to register issues: in bulk. And all you need is Google Sheets to do it.

Use cases

Many organizations repeatedly add the same or similar issues to Backlog. Some teams have a group of issues they add at the beginning of every new project. Others have tasks that recur in intervals, such as maintenance.

Whatever your reasoning, the ability to group these issues and add them at once into Backlog can save your team valuable time and effort.

How to use

With the help of Google Sheets, you can set your issue parameters including parent/child relations and custom fields*. For further instruction, please check out our Github entry here.
