Hi,
How recover attachments when exporting issues to an Excel file ?
Thanks for your answer.
Exporting issues from Jira to an Excel file typically includes the issue details but not attachments. To recover attachments associated with Jira issues, you'll need to use a different method. Here's a general approach:
Manual Download: If you have access to Jira, you can manually download attachments for each issue. Navigate to the specific issue, locate the attachment, and download it. This can be time-consuming for a large number of issues.
Using Jira API: You can use Jira's REST API to retrieve attachments programmatically. You'll need to write a script or program that iterates through the issues, retrieves attachment information, and downloads them. Here's a basic outline of the steps involved:
Third-Party Tools: There are third-party tools available that facilitate the extraction of attachments from Jira. These tools usually offer a more user-friendly interface compared to writing scripts. Some examples include:
Jira Backup: If you have administrative access to Jira, you might consider taking a full backup of your Jira instance, which would include attachments. However, this is a more involved process and may not be suitable if you only need specific attachments or issues.
Regardless of the method you choose, it's essential to ensure that you have the necessary permissions to access the attachments and data within Jira, as well as to comply with any relevant data privacy regulations or policies.
