How to get data out of Jira to external systems

I'm looking for methods, recommendations, etc on what is the best way of getting data out of Jira so that it can be imported into another system.  I need this to be able to be done automatically (i.e. either via a cron job type approach, or some trigger).  Being new to Jira, I'm not sure where to start.  I've looked through the forum, but so far havent seen any specifics that are useful (they are probablye out there, just havent come across them yet). So, really comes down to these questions:
1. What's the best way of extracting data from jira (sql tables, a web service, ?)
2. Whats the best way of making the data extract happen (jira trigger, the 'jelly' scripts, do a pull from the other system)?

thank you in advance.

Hi,

To get data out of JIRA, you have many options depending on the data format

1.  Webservices (SOAP or REST)
2.  Database
3.  RSS feeds
4.  JIRA 4 through OpenSocial (although may not be what you want)

To trigger off data export

1.  Post function (auto)
2.  Listener (auto)
3.  Service (auto)
4.  Manual webwork actions

There are probably more options, but these are off the top of my head right now.

Regards

Patrick,
thanks for the start point.  Is there documentation on each of these areas, and if so where?
