      Currently we only allow JSON imports with everything in one file. This prevents users from importing data from systems such as Lighthouse (http://lighthouseapp.com/). As we allow JSON importing, we should consider support for different JSON export styles.

            [JIM-862] Extend JSON import support to work with Lighthouse exports

            JSON format used by JIRA Importers Plugin depicts an internal structure of JIRA Importers Plugin and JIRA.
            We are not going to support various JSON formats used by other 3rd party issue trackers as part of this very JSON importer. They may be one day supported explicitly though by dedicated importers.
            There are no plans at the moment to support direct importing from Lighthouse.
            I recommend to:
            a) use CSV (simpler)
            b) write a custom transformer which would transform JSON generated by Lighthouse into JSON format accepted by JIRA
