Hi All,

I find the solution for this i have added a webwork entry in atlassian plugin.xml

Front controller is jsp file and .java file as supporting action.

Now i am able to get the required things in my .jsp file and i find its working.

Hi Tousif Shaikh,

I am also looking for a similar solution. Instead of saving the report to excel and then copying ot to email, I need to email the report directily from Jira.

Can you explain me how you could do it and what plugin type you implemented. It will be really helpful.

Any tip how to do this? What we want is to sent out excel generated report from an issue filter.

[Renjith Pillai]

That looks quite unecessary when you can create a subscription for the filter which JIRA automatically sends out.

[Erwin Manuel]

Well, we are sending out the reports to users outside the network and they dont have access to our Jira. So in this case the excel format is better than the html emails.

[Renjith Pillai]

Ah okay, that makes sense.

I would look at scheduling a wget command on the url for the Excel using task scheduler or cronjob and then emailing the report from there using any command line tools.

Instead of creating and maintaining an inhouse-built solution, you can develop your custom report with the PDF View Plugin, and then utilize the PDF Automation Plugin to send that in an email according to flexible CRON based schedules or at issue events (workflow transitions, creations, etc.)

If you prefer the Excel file format, then you can the Excel Automation Plugin to implement this (tutorial).

Here is a sample report with issue lists, aggregate values and graphical charts:

jobin how can you do subscribing mail to issue's owner ? I tried subscribin but it always send mail to me.

[Jobin Kuruvilla [Adaptavist]]

You can't. The owner will have to subscribe himself. Or you can subscribe to a group.

thanks mate :(

Sending a report to users via email is not possible out of the box unless you are using some plugin which supports that. You can however export few reports to Excel!

You might also want to look at subscribing to filters and 'Email this issue' plugin if you want to send selected issues.
