| 99 | This plugin http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/TicketImportPlugin lets you import into Trac a series of tickets from a CSV file or (if the xlrd library is installed) from an Excel file. |

| 101 | You can also use it to modify tickets in batch, by saving a report as CSV, editing the CSV file, and re-importing the tickets. |
| 102 | |
| 103 | This plugin is very useful when starting a new project: you can import a list of requirements that may have come from meeting notes, list of features, other ticketing systems... It's also great to review the tickets off-line, or to do massive changes to tickets. |
| 104 | |
| 105 | Based on the ticket id (or, if no id exists, on the summary) in the imported file, tickets are either created or updated. |
