Export Project as Organized

Question

I have a project in JWM with hundreds of epics, tasks, and subtasks.  I have reorganized the order which was set up (initially) by the project participants (by direction of management).

I would like to export all from JIRA into Excel, but I am not able to find a way to export in the order I now have my project set up.  There is ascending or descending by parent, which is a (very) little helpful, but I have moved epics, tasks, and subtasks all over, and none of them are in numeric order.

Is there a way to export my existing structure that I just haven't figured out yet?

Thanks!

Mark

That's unfortunate. I'm sorry you couldn't find what you needed.

Interesting...  I took a look at several exporting tools in the Atlassian Marketplace, and I didn't find anything that met my need to export my reorganized project plan in the same order as I have it appearing in the List (Expanded) view.  :sad face:

I appreciate that pointer, Dave.  I will take a look - and any/all recommendations welcome from you or others who may see this.

It's good to be able to restructure a project plan.  However, by default, only being able to export in essentially a numeric order and then having to manually reconstruct the project plan WBS seems like a pretty big oversight to me.

If I can see the order I want right there in the List fully expanded, how is it I can't readily export exactly that?  Again, I fully admit there may be a way I just haven't yet learned.
