Exporting Meetings as Excel Files
Exporting Meetings
The export function allows you to create a complete list of all meetings in a project and process it further in Excel. This enables you to perform custom analyses based on the current data. The meeting list is continuously synchronized, which prevents different or outdated versions from circulating. The export option is available for the meetings in the project. All meetings are always exported. The list can then be filtered and analyzed in Excel.
When you export, an ".iqy" file is downloaded. This file establishes a direct connection to the meetings in buildagil.
When you open the file, it loads automatically in Excel. All meetings with the "Live" status are displayed here. Changes made in buildagil are updated directly in the Excel file.

Troubleshooting
You may encounter the error message “An unexpected error has occurred. Changes to your data cannot be saved.” when opening the ".iqy" file, which causes the session list export to fail:
If this error occurs, you should check which Microsoft account was used to sign in to Excel. Synchronization can only take place without errors if the user's Microsoft account in buildagil matches the one used in the Excel application. If the accounts do not match, synchronization will be prevented.
