Summary

When an artifact attribute is deleted from an artifact type, artifact exports fail.

More Information

If an artifact attribute is deleted from an artifact type, you might not be able to export artifacts. If an export fails, a generic 500 error is displayed that does not indicate what the problem is. This problem occurs when the view contains an invalid attribute type, or the attribute type has been deleted since the view was created.

Workaround

Edit the current view in which the artifact or artifacts were selected for export. Either save the view or delete and re-create it, and then try to export again.
