Export Jira Audit Log in PDF Format

[iftekhar sayyed]

Hello All,

I have a requirement to Export Audit Logs for Jira in PDF Format. Is there any 3rd party tools available which will help us in importing the Audit Logs in a PDF format.

Interesting use case! You can absolutely do this with the Better PDF Exporter and it is actually fairly easy to do.

The app is extremely flexible,  basically, any information available from the Jira Cloud REST API can be exported to PDF with the technique I describe below (samples). We actually utilize this in many templates shipped with the app!

Steps:

1. Write a Groovy script to:
   1. Get the audit log records from the Get audit records REST API end-point.
   2. It returns them as JSON, parse them to Groovy objects.
   3. Return the Groovy objects for the PDF template.
2. In the PDF template, export the fields of the audit log records that are important to you to the format that best suits your use case.

The templates/scripts shipped with the app show plenty of examples to each of these. If you have questions, ask us any time!

(Discl. it is a paid and supported app developed by our team. Free for 10 users.)

Hi Brant,

Thanks for the reply but our requirement is to Export to PDF.

Do you know if there are 3rd party tools available which can make this task easier.

@iftekhar sayyed You can only export the audit log in CSV format at this time.  You could always open this in excel and then print to PDF.

Hi Brant,

Also do you have information how we can export the audit log in CSV.
