Import work items into an event (admin)

A work item is a bug or performance issue for AWS BugBust event players to claim and fix. Players compete with other event players to see who can earn the most points by fixing bugs and performance issues. AWS BugBust administrators import work items when setting up an event. After an AWS BugBust administrator creates an event, the administrator can update the event by importing more work items. You can import more work items after you create your event, but not after your event starts.

Important

If you import bugs from Amazon CodeGuru Reviewer into your event, do not diasassociate the associated repository that contains the code with the bugs. Players cannot score points by fixing bugs in a disassociated repository. For more information, see Disassociate a repository in the CodeGuru Reviewer User Guide.
