User CSV export does not treat usernames with comma properly

XMLWordPrintable

      Summary

      When exporting the user list to CSV, the importer won't handle it properly.

      Example:

      • Have a user with username = user,name;
      • Export the users to CSV in the user management;
      • Since there is a comma in the username, it will impact in the CSV row for that user, since the comma is the default delimiter:
        • Notice that the username will be divided in two columns. And because of that, all the other information will be wrongly positioned, even putting information in an additional column:

      Environment

      Jira Cloud

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Have a user with comma in it's username;
      2. Export the Users to CSV in the user management.

      Expected Results

      The username should not be divided. When there is a string with comma, it should be exported in quotes: "user,name".

      Actual Results

      The string is divided in two columns, impacting in the whole row for that user in the CSV

      Workaround

      No workaround at the moment
