      Problem

      When using the CSV importer to import 21+ comments in a single ticket, it will not properly import all comments. Instead, only 20 comments are added and then repeat again. Comments above 20 are not added. This behaviour only occurs when:

      • Created field is also populated with the CSV
      • And no timestamps are provided for comments
      Steps to Reproduce
      • Create a CSV file with over 20 comments or use this file: multiple_comment_import.csv
        • In this file, there are 25 comments, numbered 1 to 25
      • In JIRA navigate to: JIRA Admin > System > External System Import > CSV
      • Go through the import wizard:
        • Select an existing project
        • Ensure to map Comments, Created Date, Summary
      • Once import is complete check the new tickets
      Expected Behaviour

      All comments are properly imported from 1 to 25.

      Actual Behaviour

      Only 20 of the 25 comments are imported and then 5 of those comments are repeated again. The comments seem to be random:

      • In this case, notice that comments 1 to 5 are missing and 21 to 25 are duplicated.
      Notes

      Just wanted to re-iterate that this only occurs when these conditions are met:

      • Created field is also populated with the CSV
      • And no timestamps are provided for comments
