      Issue Summary

      Using the Jira Cloud for Excel app, if in the list of available fields I selected Linked Issues it gives me the Issue Key but not the type of dependencies like Blocked By, Implemented By, etc...

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Use the app to Export a search result to Excel, including the Linked Issues field

      Expected Results

      Like when exporting to CSV, there are different columns for each type of link:

      Outward issue link (Blocks),Outward issue link (Cloners),Outward issue link (Problem/Incident),Outward issue link (Problem/Incident),Outward issue link (Problem/Incident),Outward issue link (Relates),Outward issue link (Relates)

      Actual Results

      Only the issue keys of the linked issues are returned, the same as you have in the UI if for a search result you choose to show the Linked Issues field

      Workaround

      As a temporary workaround you can use the export to CSV functionality and open the csv file with Excel.

            Converted to feature as initially this functionality was not supposed to be implemented.
