Export KanBo Board View to Excel
Last modified:
With this KanBo functionality, you can export a Board's content into a .csv file.
This will help you display it in a highly visual manner in Excel and use it i.e. for reporting.
To export a Board, simply select the following button on the top pane.
Now you can select Export view to file.
Now the download of the .csv file will start. Once it's done, you can import this .csv file to Excel.
This instruction's screenshots were made in Excel 2016, however the functionality will be very similar also in the older versions of Excel. See documentation provided by Microsoft regarding importing .csv files into Excel: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/import-or-export-text-txt-or-csv-files-5250ac4c-663c-47ce-937b-339e391393ba
To import the Boards csv file to Excel, go to Excel and select Data and then, Get data.
Now select From File and in the next step, from Text/CSV.
