Exporting work
Article Content
Pilla lets you export work data as CSV files sent to your email. You can export by tag or by team, with optional date range filtering. Both export options are available to managers and admins.
Export work by tag on mobile
Export all work items that share a specific tag.
- Open the Work Items tab
- Tap the Menu button
- Tap Export work by tag
- The screen opens showing the selected tag's name in the AppBar (defaults to your first tag)
- Optionally set a date range using the Start Date and End Date pickers below the AppBar
- Tap the Download icon in the top-right corner of the AppBar to start the export
An alert confirms the export has started:
Export Started Your export is being processed. You will receive an email with the download link shortly.
The Download icon is disabled when there are no work items to export.
Changing tag on mobile
Tap the Change Tag button in the floating bar at the bottom of the screen to select a different tag.
Export work by tag on web
- Open the Work Items tab
- Click the Menu button
- Click Export work by tag
- A side panel opens titled "Export Work by Tag"
- Click the Select a tag dropdown and choose a tag from the list
- Optionally set a date range using the Start Date and End Date pickers
- Preview the matching work items in the list below -- each card shows the work name, team, time, and completion status
- Click the Export button in the top-right corner of the panel header
A confirmation appears:
Export Started You will receive an email with the download link shortly.
The Export button is disabled until you select a tag and at least one work item is found. If the list is long, click Load More at the bottom to see additional work items before exporting.
Export work by team on mobile
Export all work items assigned to a specific team.
- Open the Work Items tab
- Tap the Menu button
- Tap Export work by team
- The screen opens showing the selected team's name in the AppBar (defaults to your first team)
- Optionally set a date range using the Start Date and End Date pickers below the AppBar
- Tap the Download icon in the top-right corner of the AppBar to start the export
The export confirmation and behaviour are the same as exporting by tag. The Download icon is disabled when there are no work items to export.
Changing team on mobile
Tap the Choose Team button in the floating bar at the bottom of the screen to select a different team.
Export work by team on web
On web, Export work by team opens the same side panel as Export work by tag. Select your tag and date range, then click Export to receive the report by email.
What the export includes
Each work card in the preview shows:
- Work name -- the title of the work item
- Team -- which team the work belongs to
- Work time -- the scheduled start and end times
- Completion -- the current completion status (e.g. complete, in progress, overdue, missed)
The CSV file sent to your email contains the full completion data for the filtered work items.
Tips
- Exports are sent to your registered email address as CSV files
- Use the date range pickers to narrow down results and keep file sizes manageable
- You can preview work items on web before exporting to make sure you have the right selection
- If no work items match your filters, the export button is disabled -- adjust your tag, team, or date range
- Pull down to refresh the work list on mobile if you have recently made changes
