Pie chart of total issues vs in status Category

Question

Hi all

I feel like this may be a very noob question but I searched a bit and was not successful.

I have 3 filters that show issues in To Do, In Progress and Done status categories ... and a 4th one that shows the total count of ALL issues across our Jira instance.

I would like to visualise this in a Pie chart but not succeeding. I would like to see 1 pie chart that shows the full circle meaning ALL issues across the instance and the slices showing issues in each of the 3 Status categories.

Please advise / assist how I can achieve this?

Thank you

Yatish

⚠️ warning ⚠️ hack alert

you Could consider using automation to set a custom field based on the transition.

trigger - issue transitioned (from any to any)

condition - If/else and use JQL condition (statuscategory = "to do")

action - edit issue and set your custom field to TODO

Else if statuscategory = "in progress"

action.....

etc.

in this way, you can set up your pie chart using your custom field. One final note on this is that the automation works going forward not for existing issues. For that I would use bulk edit feature.

Doh! I was a afraid someone will comment with a "I'm afraid ..." comment :P

OK thanks for that. I guess for now, I will settle with a word cloud that shows the totals in a 3 column layout.

I'm afraid the pie chart does not yet support status category as a groupable field.
