Administering Custom Export Templates

Overview

Users can export requirements using the R4J Template Export. When initiating an export, the user selects a template from a list of templates administered by a Jira administrator.

To administer templates as a Jira administrator, do either of the following:

  1. Go to the R4J section at Apps > Manage your apps > Export Templates.

  2. As an administrator of R4J, go to the R4J sidebar > Settings > Export Templates.

The template storage space is limited to 3 MB for evaluation cloud instances. With a subscription the storage space is increased to 30 MB.
