Large exports & background jobs

Exportelier handles large bulk/JQL exports by moving them to a background job automatically.

When jobs run in the background​

When a result set is large, the export switches to a background job so your browser stays responsive. You can track progress and download the result when it finishes.

Timeouts and very large exports​

For extremely large exports, consider:

  • Narrowing the JQL query — see JQL tips.
  • Splitting the export into smaller batches.
  • Delivering via webhook rather than email, which has attachment limits.
