Custom Tempo worklogs export from Jira

Anca Cristescu

Hello,

What we have:

* Jira Data Center

* We use Tempo to log our time 

* Better Excel to create monthly custom exports for logged time

* We have many-many issues to log time monthly (weekly there are more then 2000 tickets)

* Also, we have many users that don't log time in time, or that change their logged time ... very 'what you see today not guaranteed to be tomorrow'.

What we need:

To be able to export/generate these monthly exports easier :-)

HELP!!!

Is there another app that we can use to export the logged time from Tempo?

We like Better Excel because we can customize a lot, but we are very annoyed that we can't export more than 2000 tickets sooo 3-4 days at a time :-(

 

Any idea is welcomed!

Thank you,

Anca

Hi @Anca Cristescu 

You can overwrite the export limit in Jira, this will also imapce Better Excel.

See https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/filter-export-only-contains-1000-issues-in-jira-server-191500982.html 

But this can impact performance or even bring the instance down as ti will consume memory.

The same article information is mentioned in the Better Excel documentaiton.

Thank you @Marc - Devoteam for your input.

It is working ok, as long as I don't what to export worklogs :( 

I get a timeout if I want to export a little too much than my current batch.

A follow up question - would it be better in Cloud? Could these monthly reports be generated 'easier'? without needing so small junks?
