how can I run a mass download (approx 7,000) issues?

[John S]

there seems to be a limit of 1,000 issues when mass exporting.  How can I download full list (approx 7.000) issues? Thanks,

Adding to @Ivan Lima answer https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1221301/jira-cloud-for-excel-official?tab=overview&hosting=cloud  This is one of the best way to export more than 1000 issues from Jira Cloud.  The benefit of this being, unlike the csv export the Jira cloud for Excel lets you dynamically fetch the details directly in the exported xls file.

Hi @John S

as already mentioned by others, there are number of apps available on the Atlassian Marketplace that allow circumventing Jira's 1000 issue export limit.

E.g., if a solution from the Marketplace is an option for you, this would be easy to do using the app that my team and I are working on, JXL for Jira.

JXL is a full-fledged spreadsheet/table view for your issues that allows viewing, inline-editing, sorting, and filtering by all your issue fields, much like you’d do in e.g. Excel or Google Sheets. It also comes with a number of advanced features, including support for (configurable) issue hierarchies, issue grouping by any issue field(s), sum-ups, or conditional formatting.

Plus, it allows exporting any number of issues in just a click, like so:

You may already know that you can trial any app for free for 1 month, and depending on the size of your size, it may be free forever. So if an app is an option for your, perhaps try a few and see which works best for you.

Any questions just let me know, 

Best,

Hannes

@John S, our Better Excel Exporter app is a popular option for mass-exporting large issue sets! You can try it free any time to make sure that it meets your requirements and workload.

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