🏆 App of the Month: Exporter for Jira – Export Issues to Excel and CSV

Turning Jira data into actionable insight – effortlessly

At Team '24 in Barcelona, we had the pleasure of meeting the team from Dieser – the creators behind several smart and lightweight Jira apps. We’ve tested a few of their tools before, but this month, one of them stood out for how directly it solves a common pain point: getting your Jira data out of Jira and into Excel or CSV.

That’s why our App of the Month spotlight is on:🔧 Exporter for Jira – Export Issues to Excel and CSV

Why did this app catch our eye?

If your team lives in Jira, you know its native export options can be limiting. Whether it’s building pivot tables for management, analysing data trends, or just sharing updates with people outside Jira – we often found ourselves wishing for a quicker, cleaner export method.

That’s exactly what Exporter for Jira delivers:

✅ Seamless experience:No complicated configurations, no learning curve. Just a clear “Export” button where you already work in Jira – whether you’re viewing an issue, a board, or filtered search results.

✅ Highly customizable:Select exactly which fields to export – including custom fields, comments, and attachments. Tailor each export to what your audience actually needs.

✅ Handles real-world scale:It works whether you’re exporting a few issues from a sprint, or a large backlog from an entire project.

✅ Better reporting, faster:Once in Excel or CSV, your data is ready for pivot tables, charts, or dashboards. No more manual copy-pasting or wrangling raw JSON exports.

Why it stood out to us at Team '24

Meeting the Dieser team gave us insight into their philosophy: building tools that do one thing exceptionally well, and do it reliably.They’ve clearly spent time understanding the real friction points Jira admins, project managers, and analysts face every day. Instead of overloading the app with features, they focused on making export effortless – and it shows.

We also tested some of their other apps after the conference, and noticed the same pattern: lightweight tools designed to remove daily annoyances rather than forcing you to rethink your entire workflow.

Who will find it useful?

• Project managers creating regular stakeholder updates.

• Business analysts doing deeper data exploration.

• Scrum masters tracking sprint metrics.

• Any team that still relies on Excel or Google Sheets for client-facing reports.

In short, if you’ve ever cursed at Jira’s default CSV export – this app is worth a look.

Our verdict

Small plugin, big impact.Exporter for Jira does exactly what it promises, with surprising flexibility and speed. It has quickly become part of our toolkit for simplifying reporting and keeping non-Jira stakeholders in the loop.
