The Scenario
You are a QA engineer. The release retrospective is in three hours. You have fifty regression test failures in an Excel workbook: the QA Failures tab has test name in column A, description in column B, severity in column C.
Every failure needs to be a Gleap bug ticket before the retro so engineering can triage in Gleap during the meeting.
The bad version of the next three hours:
- You open Gleap's new ticket form
- You paste the test name from column A into the title field
- You paste the description from column B into the body
- You set severity from column C manually
- You save, note the ticket ID, type it back into column D
- You do this fifty times
- You make it through thirty-one before the retro starts
The fast version is one prompt.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI is an AI agent inside your Excel workbook that reads each row and creates the Gleap ticket, so you never have to open the Gleap form.
Open the SheetXAI sidebar and type:
Create a Gleap bug ticket for every row in the QA Failures tab — title in column A, description in column B, priority in column C — write the new ticket ID back to column D.
SheetXAI reads the tab, creates a Gleap bug ticket per row, and writes each ticket ID to column D. Fifty tickets, zero form fills.
What You Get
A completed QA Failures tab with:
- Columns A, B, C — your original test failure data, unchanged
- Column D — the Gleap ticket ID for each row, live and directly referenceable
Every ticket ID in column D links to a real Gleap record. During the retro, engineers can jump from the workbook to the Gleap ticket in one click, add comments, assign owners, and update status.
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
QA exports are rarely formatted the way Gleap expects. SheetXAI handles normalization and creation in the same prompt.
When severity labels do not match Gleap's priority system
Your QA tool outputs "Critical," "High," "Medium," "Low" but Gleap expects P1 through P4.
Before creating tickets, convert severity in column C of the QA Failures tab: Critical → P1, High → P2, Medium → P3, Low → P4. Then create a Gleap bug ticket per row and write ticket IDs to column D.
When some descriptions are blank
A handful of rows in column B have no description.
Create a Gleap bug ticket for each row in the QA Failures tab. If column B is blank, use the test name in column A as the description with the prefix "No description — test failure: ". Write ticket IDs to column D and "CREATED — NO DESC" to column E for rows where you used the fallback.
When you only want Critical and High severity
Filter to rows in the QA Failures tab where column C is Critical or High. Create a Gleap bug ticket for each filtered row and write the ticket ID to column D. Leave column D blank for Medium and Low rows.
When the workbook has duplicates from a test suite re-run
Deduplicate the QA Failures tab by test name in column A, keeping the first occurrence. Then create a Gleap bug ticket for each unique row and write the ticket ID to column D. Write "DUPLICATE — SKIPPED" to column D for dropped rows.
The pattern: normalize the data and create the tickets in one instruction. No pre-cleaning step, no separate dedup pass.
Try It
Get the 7-day free trial of SheetXAI and open your next QA failure workbook, then ask it to push each row to Gleap as a bug ticket. The Gleap integration is included in every SheetXAI plan. See also how to export Gleap tickets for sprint triage in Excel or the Gleap in Excel overview.
