A PowerShell script for exporting all issues of a repository to a CSV file
This script will download the most commonly used fields for issues from a GitHub repository and write them to a CSV file. This CSV file can then be opened and analyzed with Microsoft Excel or other tools.
The script will run on any Windows device that has least PowerShell 4.0 installed.
An example of the CSV file it generates is available: Example.csv
- Download the newest release.
- Extract all files in the archive to a folder

- Right click
GHIssuesToCsv.ps1and select Edit... - Set
$Repo_Path=to the container and the name of the repository you want to export the issues for - Set
