Export a GitHub Project View

Export the current project view as a tab-separated file and verify its scope. The export represents a view snapshot, not a complete backup of issue conversations, repository access and automation.

Step-by-step guide

01

Check access and scope

People who can access a project can export a view. Confirm whether the recipient should receive the data before creating a portable file.

02

Open the review view

Open the project view used for the review.

03

Inspect filters and fields

Inspect filters and visible fields so scope is deliberate.

  • Worked example: Export an upcoming-release table with owner, status, iteration and target date. Inspect a multiline title or missing field so the spreadsheet importer does not silently misalign columns.
04

Export view data

Use View and Export view data. The documented action is View > Export view data, and the downloaded format is TSV rather than comma-separated CSV.

05

Check TSV parsing

Open the TSV with tab separation and inspect sample rows.

06

Record snapshot scope

Store the snapshot with view link, filters and export date.

07

Verify the result

The file contains intended rows and columns with readable text, and its scope is recorded.

Common mistakes

Check the handoff edge case

Exporting a filtered view without noting its exclusions can make a partial snapshot look complete. Record the scope beside the file.

Spec to tickets

Working in GitHub? Turn your spec into dependency-ordered tickets.

Paste the feature or spec. Vantage pulls out the requirements and breaks them into tickets, ordered by what blocks what, ready to groom with your team.

How this works

  1. We save what you typed. No AI runs on this page.
  2. You create a free account.
  3. Vantage builds a PRD and dependency-ordered tickets from it inside your own workspace.

Why ask for an account? We’re a small team, and a full generation runs a multi-step AI pipeline that costs us real money. So we tie it to a free account instead of running it anonymously. You also get to keep the result and edit it.

Your text is only used to create your project, and it stays private to your account. If you don’t sign up, we delete it after 7 days. Privacy policy
