How to extract the backlog order

[michael.kreeger]

The backlog in Jira allows teams to move items up and down in the list.  I need to extract the data from Jira and need to preserve this order.  What field is available to see how the items are ordered in the backlog?

What do you mean by "extract"?

If you mean "download to CSV via the issue navigator", then you can add the "rank" field to the display (and hence download).  It will contain nonsense as far as your humans are concerned, but it will work in spreadsheets if you choose it as the sort order.
