Can you turn projects past their due dates red

[Chad R Brown]

Is there a way to turn projects or the due date red in the dashboard filter query?  Looking for a visual way showing things that are past due.

Hello @Chad R Brown 

Are you referring to the Jira Project entity (a container for Jira issues) or using the term Project in another way?

How are you tracking the due date of a project? The Jira Project entity does not natively support having start/end/due date information.

Sorry, wrong terminology.  I have issues in a query being added to a dashboard with the due date as one of the columns to display.  I was hoping that the issues beyond the due date would turn red.

It looks like there is a change request for that:

I'm still looking to see if here is an alternate method. One way I can think of would be to add a custom field that could be set to indicate an issue is overdue, and use Automation to set it and clear it.

Hi @Chad R Brown 

One work-around is to add another dashboard gadget and filter, specifically showing overdue items by adding this to your filter:

duedate < now()

When nothing is overdue, the gadget would be empty.

Kind regards,
Bill
