Hi @Arianna Maria Meogrossi

welcome to the community!

It looks like there might be an incident, as the same problem is also reported by others. You may want to reach out to Atlassian Support about this.

Best,

... and just as food for thought: If you're open to solutions from the Atlassian Marketplace, you'll find a number of alternatives to the official Excel integration. Depending on your exact use case, you may even want to consider whether you need to sync back and forth between Jira and Excel at all, or whether you could do all your work in one place, just Jira.

E.g., you may want to have a look at the app that my team and I are working on, JXL for Jira. It's a full-fledged spreadsheet/table view for your issues that allows viewing, inline-editing, sorting, and filtering by all your issue fields, much like you’d do in e.g. Excel or Google Sheets. JXL also comes with a number of advanced features, including support for (configurable) issue hierarchies, issue grouping by any issue field(s), sum-ups, or conditional formatting.

This is how it looks in action:

This all happens directly in Jira, using your Jira data - so whatever you chose to do in JXL, your view is always live and fully synchronised. 

Any questions just let me know!
