Occasionally, there is a need to customise the CSV Importer to use more advanced operations. For example, it is possible to have Jira search for users using its Full Name instead of searching for a First Name Last Name combination To implement these features you will just need to add the property to the properties file created for the CSV Import.
Below is a list of the extra properties currently available.
