Export Jira dashboards to PDF

Jira dashboards and Jira reports are great tools to summarize issue, project and progress information in the Jira web user interface, but they were not designed for exporting and for sharing with external people. The dashboard-fo.vm template exports dashboards, reports and Scrum/Kanban boards to PDF documents which can then be shared, emailed or archived easily.

In addition to the manual actions, you can automate the PDF creation and emailing process, and the periodical reports will arrive to the target mailboxes 100% automatically!

Jira reports and agile boards

When you need a built-in Jira report, a Jira Software Kanban board or a Jira Software Scrum board exported to PDF (none of these are possible with Jira built-in features!), just export its dashboard gadget equivalent. This particular sample captures an ongoing Scrum sprint's board using the Agile Wallboard Gadget.

Automatic localization for dashboards & reports

Similar to all other types of Jira PDF exports, dashboard exports also use the language selected in the user's profile settings. Note that all content (including gadget titles and charts) is exported in German without any further interaction.
