Moving Jira tickets to Github automation

When you need to move your existing issue list from Jira to Github the following project will come in handy.

https://github.com/amalhub/github-automation

The project has been made to automate the process of moving Jira tickets to Github issues. In this approach I've used the Jira issue list export functionality to export the issue list into an XML file and then using the Github API, I have automated the process of pushing the issue list into Github.

If you want to perform a bulk operation on the moved Jira issues refer Editing multiple Jira issues at the same time. Using this functionality you can add a comment in the Jira directing the user to the Github issue list (Since the Git issue header contains the Jira issue id user can easily search for it).

Example comment: "Moved to Github issues: ${link}. Search with Jira issue ID to find it in Git."

Follow the ReadMe file in the project and you will be done with the process in no time!

Happy Coding!!
