Is there any API to extract the data of a project?

[Sruthi Susan Biju]

Hi team,

I am looking to develop an automated job to extract the data of a Jira project along with attachments.

The data should be extracted in CSV (All Fields) format

Is there any available API or alternate solution to get the data?

Hi @Sruthi Susan Biju  Welcome to Atlassian Community!

Yes, you can use Jira JQL API to get projects issue data into CSV. You need to get data using Web in excel.

Hi @Sruthi Susan Biju welcome to the community.  Do you have any scripting plugins installed in your instance something like scriptrunner?  It would take a bit of work but I'm confident that if you have a plugin like this you could achieve what you are asking.

Hi @Craig Nodwell

There is a scriptrunner plugin installed so hopefully a job or listener would help in automating the ask. But here we will have to export the data of a project and the issues might be huge too like 20-30k issues. So we are looking for something so that the issues can be grouped into chunks and then exported via some script or any alternatre solution.
