Feature Request - Export Parent Child info to Excel #44

Closed geneva-data closed 6 years ago

geneva-data commented 6 years ago

When exporting to Excel , the parent child information is not included in the export data. Can this be added?

@geneva-data I'm afraid it's outside of what's possible to do using the limited capabilities we have of a Chrome Extension. Since all you see is just one-the-fly front-end visual adjustments, it doesn't affect the way Trello generates export data, unfortunately.

Thanks Alex,

I have a workaround. I am using another extension Trello Export which has the capability to export custom fields and checklists. It seems that the parent/child are being treated as a checklist so it is able to export the data.

Once in Excel, I still need to rearrange things so I can view the related data (Epics and User Stories) hierarchically but I will automate with a macro at some point to make it more or less seamless.

Thanks for your great extension!

Best, Jonathan

Maybe you can see if the open source code of TrelloExport can help you to incorporate an export feature into your extension
