How to extract the issues in a text format or any other light weight format?

srinivasp

I am in the process of pulling out information for 30,000 bugs.

Pulling out this information via the usual HTML, Word, Excel does not scale very well.

Any pointers to extracting the issues in a text format or any other light weight format would be very helpful.

You didn't say why you needed a text format - that would help determine what kind of answer you are looking for. For instance, the JIRA Command Line Interface has a text representation of an issue or CSV representation of a list of issues.

I'd grab it with xml and whack it through an xslt transform.

Hi Bob, I tried JIRA Command Line Interface and found it is very helpful. Thanks for suggesting me about this. I tried the following command jira --action exportData --project "BUG" --version "2.0.0" -- --file "exportDataProject.txt" but i did not get the exact data which i am looking. Could you please suggest me how to import the all the issues of the project?

The CLI is limited by the same limits that exist within Jira. You can override this internal limit - see https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/64517/jira-export-50000-issues-to-excel?page=1#64520 for how, but bear in mind that it's going to kill performance while running, and unless you've got some decent hardware, probably fail (although not as badly as Excel, which is far more intensive)

I'd recommend answering Bob's question too - why do you think you want 30k issues in text?

Hi Bob, I checked getIssueList action as it is returning issues in text format. But I am getting this error.

"Remote error: com.atlassian.jira.rpc.exception.RemoteException: Error occurred during searching: 'You are not allowed to get a result set of more than 1000 results. Current search returns 24320 results'."
