When a  new issue is created in JIRA how to export  type,status,summary,component,attachment etc automatically to an excel file on local system.

We should be able to specify fields that need to be exported instead of all fields, and also should be able to update an existing excel file.

@Vidhya GOWTHAM Jira Cloud is not able to modify a file hosted on the local filesystem of your PC (it is basic Internet security).

You could however try to use the Better Excel Automation app, and implement an automation rule that emails the newly created issues to a mailbox:

(Discl. it is an developed and supported by our team.)

Code.  You would need to find or write a post-function or listener to do that.

It sounds like a poor requirement though - if you need this, why are you using JIRA at all?
