Importing Data From Mantis

PDF

JIRA is able to import data from Mantis, an open-source PHP-based bug tracker. The Mantis import is almost identical to the Bugzilla importer (just expecting a different database format), so please refer to the Bugzilla documentation for a walkthrough.

In addition to the Bugzilla importer's features, the Mantis importer also:

Creates a custom field, "Mantis Link", containing a link to the old Mantis bug URL. This field can be hidden when no longer useful.
Creates a custom field, "Mantis ID", containing the mantis bug ID (useful for searching)
Creates and uses a custom "Not a bug" resolution type.
Converts Mantis links (#1234) to JIRA links (TST-123) in text.

Importer Source code

The Mantis importer source code is available here (see also here) — fixes and improvements welcome.

Note: Before you begin, please backup your JIRA data.
