Export issues to CSV
You can export issues as CSV files from WVS, which are sent to your default notification email address as an attachment.
Export Issues to CSV enables you and your team to export all the data collected from issues into a comma-separated values (CSV) file, which stores tabular data in plain text.
Choosing which issues to include
After selecting a project, from the issues page you can narrow down which
issues to export using the search bar, along with the All/Open/Closed tabs.
Exported issues are always sorted by Title. All
issues returned are exported, including those not shown on the first page.
WVS asks you to confirm the number of issues and email address for the export, after which the email is prepared.
Format
Data is encoded with a comma as the column delimiter, with " used to quote
fields if needed, and newlines to separate rows. The first row contains the
headers, which are listed in the following table along with a description of
the values:

Limitations
- Export Issues to CSV is not available at the Group’s Issues List.
- Issues are sent as an email attachment, with a 15 MB export limit to ensure successful delivery across a range of email providers. If you reach the limit, we suggest narrowing the search before export, perhaps by exporting open and closed issues separately.
- CSV files are plain text files. This means that the exported CSV file doesn’t contain any issue attachments.
