      Importing data from JSON does not provide much detail about the requirements when importing from JSON for setting the various *Version fields.

      The JSON File Example has these correctly entered but the documentation doesn't explain clearly that in order to be able to an Issue and specify, for example, a fixVersion, the desired fixVersion needs to be defined in the JSON file. If the Version is already in JIRA, but not specified in the JSON under projects, this will be logged during import:

      Version does not exist for project

      Note also that this doesn't appear to affect custom fields using the Version picker types.

      Example, we need to define versions in json even if they already exist in Jira:

            "versions": [
          {
              "name": "version_1"
          }
      ],
