There is a requirement to be able to extract the information upon a site, possibly as a CSV format file, suitable for transferring and reloading into another site. There are some considerations as to the versions of both the source and destination components.

Release 1.6.4 introduced the ability to generate a CSV file that can be loaded into a spreadsheet to allow a site to create their own reports based upon the information exported in the CSV file. This is was intended to be a feature that can be used to load the details back into Issue Tracker. The details have been extracted such that the fields are text items, except where they are specifically something like a date field.
