    • We collect Jira feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      Thanks to the implementation of JRA-8580, we can export JIRA issues as CSV file now.

      However, if we export issues which include Japanese contents and open the CSV file in Excel, the Japanese characters are garbled because Excel tries to handle the file as Shift-JIS in Japanese locale.

      From the view point of Japanese customers, it would be better if we had an option to select the encoding of the file when exporting it.

      Cheers,
      Yuki

      Update

      Workaround

      Latest Excel supports UTF-8.

      CSV (UTF-8) support: Open and save CSV files that use UTF-8 character encoding.
