Can't add "Status" column to my issue list for export to CSV.

[Barry Gosden]

Have been try to locate the Status column to add to the export issue list as CSV without having to export the whole bloody thing, but I can't find it in the list of columns to add, is it called something else?

Any help gratefully received!

My guess is that it's in the other 15 options.

I'm afraid there is not a lot you can do here.  Your admins have allowed the bad practice we usually call "fielditis", and you've got too many custom fields.  A recent "improvement" in Jira has made it impossible to find the main status field in that list when you've got fielditis, and the only real fix is to clean up your fields.

There is one thing that you *might* be able to do.  If you revert the filter back to the defaults, then the status field is usually in there, then you can re-add the other fields you need.

Thank you Nic, I was concerned this would be the case! I'll get onto the Admin team and highlight the problem.

Hi Barry Gosden,

• Can you confirm if Status is visible in the issue navigator?
• Can you share the JQL that was used to fetch the issues from JIRA
• Can you provide a screenshot of the complete issue navigator?

Thanks,

Hi Ravi, Thanks for the reply, I'm afraid I can't share the Issue Navigator screen, so I have raised the issue with my leadership team to pursue the Jira Admin group. Thanks again.
