Issue Summary

When importing issues via CSV or JSON using the integrated Jira Importers Plugin (JIM), the "Customer Request Type" (com.atlassian.servicedesk:vp-origin) field fails to accept request types using their display name.

This is a regression of JSDSERVER-1335, which was initially fixed in JSM 5.15.2 (Jira 9.15.2).

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install Jira Service Management Data Center.
2. Create at least one service project.
3. Prepare a CSV import file (Importing data from CSV), targeting that project with a populated "Customer Request Type" column.
4. From ⚙️ (gear icon) > System > External system import > CSV, import the test CSV file.

Expected Results

The "Customer Request Type" custom field is correctly mapped, and the request type is set on the imported issue.

Actual Results

The import finished page reports:

1 projects and 1 issues imported successfully!

Cannot add value [ [IT help] ] to CustomField Customer Request Type in Issue with summary 'My laptop is consistently above 90% CPU'. Probably value was in incorrect format

In the imported issue's service project request panel, the "request type" is "no request type".

Workaround

Replace the display name with the internal portal/request type storage format. You can obtain these values for a particular project with this database query:

SELECT p.pname                        AS project_name,
       p.pkey                         AS project_key,
       vpf."NAME"                     AS request_type_name,
       (vp."KEY" || '/' || vpf."KEY") AS request_type_key
FROM "AO_54307E_VIEWPORTFORM" vpf
         JOIN "AO_54307E_VIEWPORT" vp ON vpf."VIEWPORT_ID" = vp."ID"
         JOIN project p ON vp."PROJECT_ID" = p.id
WHERE p.pkey = 'ITHD'
ORDER BY project_name, request_type_key;

Replace "ITHD" with the project key. For the example above, the replacement value is: ithd/getithelp
