I need to exclude two components from my pie chart

[Yemi Lawal]

I have a pie chart with all my components based on a saved filter. I did not include the two filters i don't want in the pie chart in Jira query but they still show in the pie chart

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

I think you may be running into a common misunderstanding of how the data works.

It is a bit easier to explain with an example.  Imagine your project components are the seven colours of the rainbow, and you have issues:

Issue	Components	Search for Indigo	Search for green
RB-1	Red, indigo, violet	Yes	No
RB-2	indigo	Yes	No
RB-3	green, indigo	Yes	Yes
RB-4	blue, green	No	Yes

And let's say you use a filter for your pie chart that is 

Rainbow = indigo

The important thing here is that your search can only report a list of matching issues.  The pie chart reads all of the issues found by the search and displays all the data found on it.

In short, your pie chart will show green on a search for indigo, because RB-3 is green.

There is no way to have your pie chart misrepresent the data by not displaying what you have.

Hello @Yemi Lawal 

Can you provide a copy of the actual filter you are using.

Can you show us a screen image of the resulting pie chart and point out where the Components you excluded in your filter are appearing.

You can click on a pie chart group to drill into the issues included in that group. Can you do that and show us the Components field value(s) for some of those issues?
