View of multiple projects within JIRA

Manasa Upadhya

Hello all,

My team members are a part of multiple projects. They would like to have one view where all the tasks from all the projects they are part of is displayed.  

Additionally, I'm a program manager and I would like an overview of all the projects in a gantt chart with the start and end dates. 

Can you please let me know if these are possible on JIRA?

Hi Manasa,

I would suggest that to create a view of all of the tasks that users have assigned to them by creating a Jira Dashboard that would display this information.

To do this, I would advise creating a JQL search to see all tasks assigned to the current user that are not closed,  with some JQL similar to issuetype = Task and assignee = currentUser() and statusCategory not in (Done).

Note:  The JQL can be modified to show other issue types and issues in other statuses if needed. 

Once you have this JQL, you can save it as a filter and add it to a dashboard using a Filter Results Gadget.

This will create a view similar to the one below to allow users to see what tasks they have assigned to them.

 

As for Gant Charts, Jira does not provide these out-of-the-box , and I would suggest looking at a plugin that offers for Gant Charts which can be seen on the Atlassian Marketplace here.

I hope this information helps.

Regards,

Kristian
