How to Import Projects Data from Jira into Google Sheets

Bringing your Jira Projects data into Google Sheets lets you build custom reports, track progress, and share project details easily with your team.

Instead of manual exports, you can set up a live connection that updates automatically.

This guide shows you how to import your Jira Projects data into Google Sheets using Coefficient.

Importing your Jira Projects data into Google Sheets is simple with Coefficient. Follow these steps to get started:

Step 1: Install and Connect Coefficient

First, you need to add Coefficient to your Google Sheet.

• Open Google Sheets.
• Go to Extensions > Add-ons > Get add-ons.
• Search for “Coefficient” and install it from the Google Workspace Marketplace.

Once installed, open the Coefficient add-on from Extensions > Coefficient > Launch.

In the Coefficient sidebar, click “Import from…” and select Jira from the list of connectors.

You’ll be prompted to connect your Jira account. Follow the on-screen steps to authorize Coefficient to access your Jira data.

Step 2: Import Jira Projects Data

After connecting, the Coefficient sidebar will show your Jira data options.

• Select “Objects”.
• Choose “Projects” from the list of available objects.

You can then select specific fields, apply filters, and sort the data before importing. Once ready, click the “Import” button.

Your Jira Projects data will load directly into your Google Sheet.

Step 3: Set Up Auto-Refresh (Optional)

To keep your Projects data in Google Sheets always up to date, set up auto-refresh.

• In the Coefficient sidebar, find your imported Jira data.
• Click the “Refresh” button next to the import.
• Select “Schedule” from the options.

Choose how often you want the data to refresh (e.g., daily, hourly) and set the time. Coefficient will automatically update your sheet on the schedule you set.

That’s it! You now have a live, automatically updating import of your Jira Projects data in Google Sheets, ready for analysis and reporting.
