Using Jira cloud for Excel

[Farzaneh Shalbaf Hosseinabadi]

Has anyone started using Jira Cloud for Excel? 

It works fine on my online Excel. What I am missing is this feature that they mention in the main page:

• Schedule reports that make weekly reporting a breeze

I can refresh the data by manual clicking on Refresh Data, but I have not been able to automate it, or as they mentioned schedule it. It will be a lot of help if I could automate this export. Anyone could help?

@Farzaneh Shalbaf Hosseinabadi  - Hi there, the schedule functionality in Excel is coming soon. If you want to schedule reports from Jira data today, you can use the Jira for Google Sheets integration: https://gsuite.google.com/marketplace/app/jira_cloud_for_sheets/1065669263016

I have been reluctant using this as it is requiring me to use my personal google account, and certainly this is what I have to avoid (obviously one should avoid putting company data on personal account). Is there anyway that we can use our company user account with this integration?

@Philipp Suchan is there an open case or ticket for this so we can watch the progress?

Hi @Farzaneh Shalbaf Hosseinabadi , @Nicholaus Pyle 

We don't quite have an ETA just yet, but we're hoping to provide this feature as soon as we can. In the meantime, here's a ticket to watch: https://jira.atlassian.com/projects/API/issues/API-206

Thank you @Catherine Chang I just voted for it and started watching it. :)

I played with it a bit. I really like the idea and ease of use. I don't have a huge need for it TBH but it will certainly come in handy. I can certainly see where folks would want to have a scheduler solution but, hey, let's celebrate what we have for a few days. ;-)
