How to create a Gaant Chart roadmap view in Jira Product Discovery?

David Nadri

In a Jira Product Discovery project, is there a way to create a Gaant Chart view where you can see the Ideas over a timeline?

I'm trying to create a 'Roadmap' view where I can view Ideas grouped by a field (e.g. Product Area), over a timeline.

For example, instead of NOW/NEXT/LATER at the top, I'd like to see calendar months.

This would be similar to viewing epics over a timeline like in Jira Advanced Roadmaps:

You can rename the columns from NOW/NEXT/LATER to anything you want.

For dependencies and more detailed timelines I think the advanced roadmaps is the way to go. Because that's when it also already turned from just being ideas to a more defined roadmap.

If you search the forums for Timeline View you might find something. Timeline views are (likely) on the Product Discovery team’s roadmap (ha!) but I’d just venture a guess that they are negotiating cannibalizing other Jira products. Hopefully soon though!! #want

Hahaha I can see someone's worked in a big company before 😅

Short answer: a timeline view is coming soon, the team's actively working on it now. It's probably going to be a few weeks before we start sharing something about it.

It's not going to be a Gantt chart though - not meant to be used for delivery planning, but for prioritization discussions and high level time-based roadmaps. Think of it as "it's like a board view, except that the columns can be quarters or months or a mix of that, and cards can span multiple columns".

@David Nadri @Tanguy Crusson How do you get a view of Jira Advanced Roadmap like you have with the plans tools? Thank you.

David Nadri

@Tanguy Crusson - thanks for the quick response. Sounds interesting, looking forward to seeing the timeline view in action!

David Nadri

@Christian Happel - thanks for sharing.

I agree, makes sense. It’s just that we usually have a mix of locked delivery epics scoped into a release along with some feature ideas that are candidates for a release (could become epics) that we are still doing discovery on/collecting insights. So, a view of both epics and ideas over a monthly timeline would be nice. And then, we can share this roadmap internally & externally to give everyone a view of what’s on track and what’s a possibility we deliver (with a status).

Would be nice to accomplish all of this with the current Jira Standard plan, but it looks like we’d have to upgrade to Premium, and separately, Jira Product Discovery.

Anyways, I will try to add more columns and rename them to dates/months to recreate something like this:

Hi @Tanguy Crusson - just checking in...any updates you can share on this?

We're now starting to test different tools for creating a high-level roadmap internally & externally and would love to experiment with the latest features for this.

Tanguy Crusson

Hi @David Nadri I'm planning to share an update pretty soon with the latest, but basically we're about to start dogfooding this in the next week or so - if all goes well we'll start to give access to early beta testers shortly after that.

Welcome!
