Exporting Issues to CSV from JIRA with desired fields

[Akil Official]

Hi team,

I need to export issues from JIRA to a CSV file whereas i don't require all the fields to come in CSV file.

Is it possible to export the issues with only desired fields into CSV?

Hi @Akil Official ,

Welcome to the community !!

Yes, you can export issues with only required fields.

1. Go to Main menu --> Filters --> Advanced search. 
2. Write the required JQL and click search 
3. Now in the result section, on the right side click on Columns and select the required fields and hit search again.

     4. Click on Export button and select option "Export Excel CSV (My default)" option.

File will be downloaded with only selected columns.

Please change the search results to List view and then perform step 3 and 4.

Hey @Rilwan Ahmed and @Mayur Jadhav  Thanks for your response.

Just wanted to share with you that we have set up JIRA specific for client. I am not able to find this columns option available.

I am also JIRA Admin so can anyone help me know how to get this columns option set up? Please find below image for reference.

Thanks

Hi @Akil Official ,

Click on Advanced and then make a search using JQL. If its only a single issue, then you can use Key = "EAMS-146".

Go through each steps as mentioned in my previous comment.

Hey @Rilwan Ahmed  i have already set the filter. Tried it both basic way and also using Advanced option to set the filter. That advanced option is just an to set the filter, right? The screenshot shared above is post setting the filter. I am not able to find columns to set the desired fields.

I understood the steps you had mentioned but couldn't find the columns tab in my JIRA.
