Timelines are either private or shared with other Jira users and you can manage your Timelines from the Manage Views Page. Important Timelines can be added in the Global or Project Views section so that other team members can easily access them.
Once saved, you can also publish a Timeline on a Jira dashboard using the Timeline Gadgets.
Export in XLSX, CSV, JSON
You can export Timeline Events in different formats:
XLSX files that can be opened by Microsoft Excel version 2007 and later
CSV (comma-separated values) files that can be opened by programs storing data in tables, such as Microsoft Excel or OpenOffice Calc
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) files, a lightweight format for storing and transporting data
First of all, ensure that all the Events you want to export are visible on the Timeline.
Then, click on the Export button and select XLSX, CSV or JSON files:
