Can Jira automatically update an excel file

[Jon]

I was wondering if there’s a way to have Jira or an add-on automatically update an excel file with data that  pulls from fields in Jira? 

we have an excel file that has a general format that is the same for all our issues and we always add information from a handful of fields in Jira on each issue. Is there a way to have the system automatically update our Excel file? Or maybe some add-on that performs something like this?

Hi @Jon 

I think this option is there for google sheets but it's still a feature request for Excel auto update from Jira Cloud

Here is the feature request you can vote here https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/API-206

as FYI there is an article mentioning the auto refresh of google sheets here https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-articles/Jira-Cloud-for-Google-Sheets-Automatically-Refresh-Your-Data/ba-p/1200264?utm_source=atlcomm&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=immediate_general_comment&utm_content=topic

When you have a tool like Jira, you should really look to define your format in Jira so it can be the master for all your issues, otherwise what is the point of having Jira?
