Exporting Advanced Roadmaps as PDF

Mariah Rottoli

Hello, we´re trying to export Advanced Roadmaps with stakeholders who don´t have Jira permissions and the Public link fails because they can´t see the macros unless they have a jira user profile. When trying to export the Advanced Roadmap, I only found the "export as csv", which does not work for us.
Is there a way of exporting it as PDF instead?

Hi Mariah,

I suppose the pdf feature is not there yet, I can see a request already in "Gathering Interest" state, you can vote for the same

Hi @Mariah Rottoli ,

Adding image export (it would mostly likely be PNG rather than PDF) is something that we're really keen to add but unfortunately this keeps slipping down the priority list on our roadmap. We're aware that this is a key feature that customers need and want to get to this as soon as possible but we have to balance relative priorities of features and have a limited number of developers available to work on new features. I'm not in a position to give you any idea of when we'll get to this.

I appreciate this is probably a somewhat disappointing response for you but I just wanted to be honest and set your expectations realistically,

Regards,

Dave

Hi @Mariah Rottoli

One option you can try is the integration between Better PDF Exporter and Advanced Roadmaps, which allows you to export your roadmaps into customizable PDF documents.

Learn how to export Jira Advanced Roadmaps to PDF (in 3 steps).

(Please note that Better PDF Exporter is a paid and supported app and I'm part of the team developing it.)

Hi Levente, thanks for your answer.
Our team tried exporting a roadmap but the only view they got is a list (similar to the template you showed). They wanted a view of the roadmap plan overall (as seen in Jira).
I´ll try and find other templates to see if any of they fit their need.
Thank you!

This Chrome-Extension allows you to capture and save your view as a PDF, may work as a way around this issue.

You're quite right @Morgan Barnes - and these style of plugins are things that we have recommended in the past. The important thing is that they scroll down the page because Advanced Roadmaps is implemented with virtualisation which means that we don't render parts of the plan that aren't on the screen.

The main disadvantage of this is that you're rendering static images of controls that you can't interact with. The designs we have for a dedicated export facility are actually an alternative view which doesn't require interaction to understand (for example when you have filters applied the button says "X filters applied" but you can only find out which interactively - in our designs for an export the image would clearly describe how the plan is configured. It's unfortunate that we don't have enough developers at the moment to get to implementing this sooner!

Regards,

Dave

@Mariah Rottoli - I too am looking for this feature.

Did you have any luck finding a way to export the actual plan view to a PDF?

thanks

Mariah Rottoli

Hi @Allison Carlson unfortunately, we haven´t found an alternative for this yet

Hi @Dave ,

Any updates about this feature? We need to plot our plan on A0 to use in construction sites. So it would be a welcomed feature.

Rudy

Hi all,

The link above from Vinod is for Jira server. There is the same request to be able to export to pdf for Jira cloud as well:

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-19755

Jan Stähle

Is there any experience of a successful implementation of Better PDF Exporter in this regard or another plugin which allows a PDF export of content coming from Advanced Roadmaps you would like to share? We are still working with the screenshot tool as a temporary workaround and keep looking for alternatives.

Levente Szabo _Midori_

@Jan Stähle Many of our customers have implemented Advanced Roadmaps exporting with Better PDF Exporter. We are available for help if you get stuck or need help with your specific use case, just reach out!
