Chart customization

[Broussard_ Anna]

I see the ability to create a bar/line chart. Is there a way to create an area/line chart as well?

Hi @Broussard_ Anna! Atlassian Analytics doesn't currently have the capability to create a combined area and line chart. Let me know if you're interested in using this chart type within Analytics and I can create a feature request on your behalf. 

[Broussard_ Anna]

Hi Jessie, yes, please create a feature request. This combined line/area chart is useful for visualization for example to differentiate total vs. done, rather than just 2 lines.

Of course! Here is the feature request that I created: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/ANALYTICS-415. Please make sure to vote for, watch, and leave a comment about how helpful this chart type would be for your organization.

Hi @Broussard_ Anna,

As far as I know it is not possible to create such custom charts by using Jira's default tools.

What do you want to track, more exactly?

In case you need a more generic gadget capable to generate a custom line / area you will need to search for a plugin on Atlassian Marketplace.

If you want to try a plugin, our Great Gadgets app offers a Pivot Table & Pivot Chart gadget that can generate all kind of charts (including area and line charts). It works similar to the pivot tables /charts in Excel. See some examples:

These formats are all fine, but sometimes doesn't speak as easily vs a combined line/area, similar to the line/bar that analytics already has.

Hi @Broussard_ Anna , not OOTB. I recommend checking out the marketplace. Or just hang out here a bit as I'm sure there will be 4+ recommendations from marketplace partners posted soon.
