Use a Vansah report or gadget’s Export action to download its data as XLSX or its loaded report view as HTML. You can then print the downloaded HTML to a PDF.
Choose the format
Format | Best for |
XLSX | Reviewing and analyzing the report’s exported table data in a spreadsheet. |
HTML | Sharing a readable browser document based on the loaded report view. |
Sharing a fixed-page copy created from the downloaded HTML through your browser. |
Available export content depends on the report type. Use the options shown by the report or gadget rather than assuming every view has the same data or layout.
Prepare the report
For a saved report, open Vansah → Reports in your Jira space and choose the report. For a gadget, open the Jira dashboard containing it.
Check the configured Jira spaces, requirements, date range, grouping, and filters.
Run or refresh the report and wait for the data and charts to finish loading.
For HTML, expand the sections you need and review the displayed view before exporting.
An export reflects its report scope. It is not a backup of every case, execution, or attachment in your workspace.
Export XLSX or HTML
Open the report’s or gadget’s More options menu and select Export, or use its Export control.
In File Type, choose XLSX or HTML.
Select Export and wait for the file to download.
Open the file and compare representative rows, totals, dates, and labels with the source report.
The walkthrough shows an earlier interface. XLSX contains report data for analysis; use HTML when you need the available report presentation.
Create a PDF from HTML
Open the downloaded HTML file in a browser.
Wait for the content and images to load, then open Print.
Choose Save as PDF or another PDF destination available on your computer.
Review orientation, scale, margins, and page breaks before saving.
Open the PDF and check tables, charts, headings, and the final pages.
PDF is created by the browser. The report export dialog offers XLSX and HTML; it does not offer a separate native PDF format.
Troubleshooting
Problem | What to check |
Export control is unavailable | Confirm the report has loaded and that you have access to the underlying report or gadget. |
HTML is empty or incomplete | Refresh the source report, expand the needed sections, and review the loaded view before exporting again. |
Spreadsheet and screen differ | Check the report scope and exported columns. XLSX uses the report’s data export layout. |
A chart or wide table is cut off in PDF | Adjust print orientation, scale, and margins; check the PDF after saving. |
No file appears | Check the browser’s Downloads list and whether downloads are blocked. |
