Export tasks

Exporting tasks works the same as everywhere else in Prolibu: the download comes out of the More actions menu or the selection bar.

In the Tasks module, open More actions and choose Export all.

Tasks module More actions menu with Export all highlighted

The submenu asks for two decisions. First the content type:

  • Report — references come out with the record’s visible name. For a person to read.
  • Data — references come out as IDs. For re-importing or feeding another system.

Then the format: Excel (.xlsx) or JSON (.json).

As in the other modules, Export all downloads every task, not the ones the table happens to be showing: whatever filter you have on does not narrow the file. There’s more detail in Exporting your records.

Tick the checkboxes of the tasks you want and use Export selected in the bottom bar. The number in brackets confirms how many are coming out.

That’s the only way to narrow the download. The selection survives changing pages, so you can gather tasks from several pages into one file.

If what you’re after is a specific slice — the overdue ones, one group’s, one person’s — filter first and tick the resulting rows. Filtering without ticking doesn’t change what Export all downloads.
