Hi @Mehhss

If you intend to use the JFreechart library, no jar is available upfront.

You must download the code from the GitHub repository and build it using either Maven or Gradle.

If the build is successful, a jar file will be produced.

You will need to include that jar file into your Jira instance using the approach that I mentioned in my previous comment, i.e.:-

1. Shut down your Jira instance.

2. Add the external jar file it to the <JAVA_INSTALLATION_PATH>/lib folder and restart your Jira instance

3. Restart your Jira instance.

The classes contained in the Jar file should be accessible from the ScriptRunner editors.

Thank you and Kind regards,

Ram

Hi @Mehhss

If you intend to Generate graphs from Excel data, you will need to use the Apache POI library.

I would also suggest looking into the Midory Jira Plugin as it works pretty well with ScriptRunner.

Thank you and Kind regards,
