About the Rich Filter Statistics gadget
The Rich Filter Statistics gadget displays the collection of issues grouped by a specific field/criteria. It resembles Jira’s built-in Issue Statistics gadget, but it is based on a rich filter instead of a Jira saved search and thus adds several new features:
the collection of issues used for the statistics can be further filtered using Rich Filter Controller gadgets;
the gadget itself can further refine the results by applying a gadget-specific JQL called working query;
the gadget can group the issues by an issue field or by a smart filter;
the gadget can group the issues by the values of a date or date time field to compute daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly statistics;
the gadget can display multiple result types at the same time (such as Issue Count and Story Points);
the gadget can display custom ratios;
the gadget can display one or more time series;
the user can change the sorting order by clicking on a column name;
the gadget can display the data as a chart; the user can switch between the table view and the chart view by clicking on an icon;
the content of the gadget can be exported to PDF, Excel (.xlsx), and CSV formats.
Example 1: Issue Count and Story Points aggregated by the issue field Priority:
Example 2: Issue Count and Story Points aggregated by a smart filter named High-level Status:
The labels and colors displayed for High Level Status come from the clauses defined in this smart filter's configuration.
Configuring the Rich Filter Statistics gadget
Add a new or edit an existing Rich Filter Statistics gadget in your Jira dashboard. The configuration form of the gadget will be displayed:
Edit the gadget configuration as described below:
Setting | Description |
|---|---|
Rich filter | Select the rich filter the gadget will use. Click the Rich Filter button to display the list of rich filters; you can either scroll through or use the search box to find the desired filter. The gadgets’ configuration forms only show the rich filters you can view. For more details, check the Rights and Permissions page. |
Working Query | The working query is an additional JQL query that is permanently applied on top of the base Jira filter and any active quick filters in the controller to further filter the issues the gadget will work with. The working query is optional: if left empty, only the base Jira filter and the quick filters affect the issues used by the gadget. |
Statistic type | Select the issue field or the smart filter on which the issues will be grouped. The drop-down list includes the smart filters defined in the selected rich filter:
The gadget supports several types of breakdown configuration, depending on the selected Statistic type:
