Export of Categories does not work

Hello,

I would like to export Items from Jama (with customized Office Template) which are assigned to different categories. Regarding this I want to export these Items with their categorie.

I used the field «categoryPaths» as it is described in the Reference Guide but it does not work?!

Is there another solution?

Best regards,

Verena Neumaier

    Hello,

    unfortunately this does not work and it is a known defect: Export of Categories does not work | Support (jamasoftware.com).

    As an alternative, you can use a velocity report to export the categories: Category Name in Velocity Report instead of Path? | Support (jamasoftware.com)

    Here are some tips for creating a velocity report:  Quick Start: HTML Templates for Velocity PDF Reports (jamasoftware.com).

    Best regards, Iwan
