Create a 'release notes' document based on filter / JQL

Andre van Rossem_mnkifh

Hello all,

I would like to generate a nice formatted release notes document based on a filter from jira.

I want to define which (custom) fields i would like to add to this report (project, ticket-id, description, status, labels priority etc) and also what NOT to include (no comments)

example :

How to achieve this? is this possible without buying an app?

Hey @Andre van Rossem

Do you also have a Confluence subscription? I believe you should explore the "Jira Work Items" macro. Please check this article for details: Display Jira work items in a list

Thanks!

Hi @Andre van Rossem

This is not possible without a 3rd party app, look at the app xporter.

Hello @Andre van Rossem ,

Use Jira REST API (No app needed, just script)

Call the Jira REST API with your JQL filter:

<span>/rest/api/2/search?jql=project=S AND fixVersion=V2.5&fields=summary,status,priority,labels </span>
Specify exactly which fields you want in fields= parameter.
Parse the JSON and generate your own Word/PDF/HTML release notes using a script (Python, Node.js, etc.).
This gives you full control over which fields appear and in what format.

Hi @Andre van Rossem ,

You may look at our 'FREE' marketplace app - Automated release notes & reports.

In this app, you can precisely extract this report in the format of your choice - Email, PDF, Confluence, Word, HTML etc.

Feel free to reach out to us if you need to arrange a quick demo of our application.

Best,

Hi @Andre van Rossem

I have created a releasenotes page for a customer using Confluence as @Karan Sachdev suggests.

You can combine picecharts, two-dimensional filters, version report, created vs resolved diagrams to pull data from Jira and add plain text to give context to the release notes which makes it more interesting to read.

If you add JQL's in the formulas for the charts in Confluence you can duplicate the page for the next release and only update the version number. The releasenotes gets updated in realtime.

If you want to go with your example you could export the work items to a Excel spreadsheet and create a word document and use the function mail/merge in Microsoft Word. Confluence is prettier and gives you more options but it depends on your actual needs

Best regards,

Hi @Andre van Rossem

Be aware of the limitations of the free version in relation to the paid solution of the app.
