Issue report export customizability

Issue report export customizability

There are several options for how to export reports, but there does not appear to be a way to customize this. The beta issues on sheets for example is great but custom fields we've added such as location details, or responsible party are hidden when we export the report. Is there a way we can toggle fields on/off fields to include in the PDF export, and save export settings / set defaults so that others can easily export with the same settings?

Yea, customised reports are possible via autodesk API. Location details, reponsible party, custom fields are indeed accessible. Which other fields are you hoping to get?

@buildintel  how would I do that? I even submitted a ticket to ask how to do that and Autodesk support said it was not possible and I'd have to request it as a feature.

 

When I go to export an issue report there is no option in the dialog to toggle on and off individual custom fields we've added. And then there are 3 options for the report type: Issue detail, issue summary, and issue on sheets. Each of these has different options. Only Issue detail seems to have a checkbox for Custom fields, but we prefer using the Issue on Sheets.

@lawry.boyer I get the confusion. Autodesk support is correct that it's not possible to do within the standard UI. They are trying to guide you through the current possibilities. 
What's important is what's under the hood. Namely Autodesk Platform Services. This is the engine that runs the software and Autodesk has partners that provide customised solutions. What you're asking is very possible. I would ask your company's Autodesk Partner if I were you.
