Is it possible to add a heatmap macro to a Confluence page which draws data from Issues?

Question

On the dashboard you are able to create a heatmap from Issue data, such as the Labels field.

In Confluence it seems that you can add a heatmap macro for labels, but it draws this data from Confluence page labels. Is it possible to change this so that it looks at Issues for the data?

Thanks

Hey Tim,

Right now, you can achieve this directly in Jira using the Focus Flow plugin! It provides a heatmap view of logged time per Epic based on Jira issues, helping you track progress and spot workload trends at a glance.

If this kind of heatmap works for your needs, I’d be happy to explore a Confluence integration to bring the same insights into your pages.

Give it a try in Jira and let me know what you think!

Hi Paul,

Not sure if this is a valid thread for Concluence server 6.x.   We want to add in Confluence page of Heatmap macro but it looks like the macro can not be found.

Any suggestions? (we have JIRA for Heatmap feature but our reports are in Confluence page with maros)

Hi Tim,

I am able to insert the 'Heat Map' macro in Confluence, select the necessary project or saved filter and then select the 'Statistic Type' as 'Issue Type'.  This will display a heatmap on all issue types for that project in JIRA.  Is this similar to what you are trying to achieve?

Cheers,

Paul
