Migrating your JIRA issues to GitLab

What this post added

This post details a method for migrating JIRA issues to GitLab issues using their respective REST APIs. It outlines the necessary API calls for fetching JIRA issues, attachments, and comments, as well as for searching GitLab users and creating GitLab issues. The process involves mapping JIRA fields (summary, description, assignee, reporter, comments, attachments) to GitLab issue fields and handling cases where JIRA users do not have corresponding GitLab accounts by using a provided GitLab token.
