Export Project from Jira to readable format

[Jasper]

Hi, Is there a way to make an export of all issues ever added to a project including comments etc.?

Have you tried the obvious solution described here?

Section: exporting your search results

Or you need something more advanced?

[Jack Brickey]

this will work but note that you will be limited to the number you can export at any one time to 1000. Meaning you will need to export 1000 at a time until done and them combine in excel. Also, note that if you are on cloud the instructions are slightly different and you can click on the Cloud tab in the link that Bogdan provided.

All other ways of exporting issues are nicely summarised in this article, including advanced Jira Server and Cloud workarounds.

Thanks for sharing Bogdan, I like that article. It summarizes the options well.

As for exporting issues (including comments, etc) to PDF from Jira Cloud with a Marketplace app, there has been a new addition as of this week: the Cloud version of Better PDF Exporter for Jira! This is also one flexible tool one can give a try.

@Jasper, if you want to export more than 1000 issues, you can find guidance here.

(Of course, if you prefer Excel, that is possible too.)
