How do I get a report of all entries in an epic?

[John Sebestin]

I need a simple listing of all entries in an Epic. Need request name, number and priority. Simple text or spreadsheet would be great.

Hi John!

Do you mean the entries for each issue in the Epic? In that case you can do this:

Let's say that your epic issue key is: EPIC-123

1. Search for the epic link containing all the issues you need the entries from by going to the issue search and choose Advanced mode (next to the magnifying glass). Enter the JQL "Epic Link" = EPIC-123 which should show you all the issues in that epic.
2. Make sure that the search results are displayed in a List View and not Detailed View. You can change this by clicking on the burger menu to the right of the search field where you typed in your JQL.
3. Click on Columns below the previously mentioned burger menu and tick the boxes for which fields you want to display, if my guess is correct you want to see Summary, Issue Key and Priority.
4. Click on the export icon in the top right and just choose in what format you want it exported. If you want CSV choose the option CSV (Current fields)

I'm sorry if I completely misunderstood your question, feel free to elaborate in that case.

Robin,

Unless I'm typing something wrong, this search only present Stories with this search argument. My Epic title is OSC IT WMS Prod. Once I type the letter I, it only displays Stories and not Epic contents. Sorry if I've misread your instructions.

Hi again, John!

Yes, that search will show you all the stories/tasks in that specific epic, if you want to include the epic itself as well you can just add OR key = "EPIC-123" to the JQL.

Presuming your Epic key is EPIC-123 it would look like this:

"Epic Link" = EPIC-123 OR key = "EPIC-123"

Your Epic key will be shown in the end of your Epic name when starting to type in the search bar, like this:

Hope it helps!

Perfect! The Epic ID was the piece I was missing. I was not aware Epics also carried a unique ID. The ID was hidden from my JIRA view. 'View epic details' revealed it.

Thank you for your persistence. This will eliminate the pain behind screen shots and allow users to establish departmental priorities prior to group reviews.

Thanks again!

I'm glad you found the missing piece! 

You're very welcome :)
