  • Ah, now I believe I understand better... Those project fields are not in my instance, and so I hypothesize that they are custom fields in your instance, either created by your site admin, by a marketplace addon product, or perhaps they are in a version of Jira cloud above standard? Can you confirm any of this? If so, you…
  • Thanks, @Susan Hauth _Jira Queen_ for the idea. I expect that other than re-fetch, another work-around is to split processing between multiple rules, forcing a slow down until data is present for processing. We recently saw a different race-track symptom, with random unsaved changes errors during rule execution. Support…
  • Hi! If you search on that REST API documentation page, you will find a method for group searches, but it does not account for project searches. That is why I suggested starting from the user method, which does support searching by project but not by group. You may want to also check in the develper community to see if…
  • Hi @Prexa Patel Jira focuses on the issues not on the projects containing them, and...JQL is not a SQL. Putting those ideas together I do not see how you could use JQL to find just projects without the associated issues (and the field values of interest). You could investigate the REST API to check the projects directly,…
  • Probably yes, and perhaps not, depending upon the format/content you want in the comment... Please identify an example issue with the values you care about in the field(s), and then use the method described here to learn what the smart value/JSON structure is:…
  • Thanks, Kerrie. As there could be something up with your specific Jira instance, you may want to chat with your site admin about submitting a support ticket to Atlassian. You appear to be on a standard (paid) version so your admin can log the ticket here: https://support.atlassian.com/contact/#/ After you hear back from…
  • Thanks for clarifying that! If your goal is to have the 4 issues (with different branches) in the single Jira version/release, please take a look at those subsequent firings to see if there is information in the trigger message that can be used to ignore the version creation steps in the rule. If instead your goal is to…
  • Hi @druben -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! You can find all of the assignable users with: https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/1000.1568.0/#api/2/user-findAssignableUsers Or, if you want to narrow the permissions set for the project, please try this:…
  • Hi @Gerardo Dalena According to this post, you can do that with an advanced compare condition: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Auto-Assign-Based-on-Multiple-CF-values/qaq-p/927398 Here is the related information on the JSON fields to support this:…
  • Thanks for explaining! You cannot do that type of query with out-of-the-box Jira. You would need a marketplace add-on such as ScriptRunner. I do not have that add-on in my current instance so someone else will need to provide advice how to perform the query. You could possibly also do this with automation for Jira rules.…
  • Thanks! Looking at your image, there appears to be a component above "When: Deployment status changed.." which I why I asked if that was the complete rule as no trigger appears to be shown. Is the rule triggered separately for each issue, 1-4, or one execution trigger gathering and processing 4 issues?
  • I am glad that helped, and... Yup, the gadgets appear to do some duplication/re-storage of filter information and so updating them helps. The gotcha for this is when people believe they are updating a saved filter and miss to also update the gadgets. Sadly there is no easy way to find those filter uses in a site to update…
  • Hi @James Tyreman -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! Can other members of the team see the dashboard or is it blank for all team members except yourself? When did you share the saved fitlers: before you added them to the gadgets or after adding them to the gadgets? If it was after, please try to edit one of the…
  • Hi @A Chattopadhyay -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! I have some follow-up questions which may help the community to offer you ideas: * What problem are you trying to solve by doing this? * Is this a one-time problem to solve, or do you need to solve this problem repeatedly in the future? * What do you mean by…
  • Hi @Kerrie There have been a few posts on this symptom for the description and comment fields. Here is the open defect on the comments field one, if you want to watch it for progress: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-72289 One of the suggested work-arounds is to make a small change to the field and then try to…
  • Hi @Kevin McGillicuddy Although you may be able solve this within the rule, you may want to pause and think about your process. You appear to have only posted part of your rule, and if I am understanding from your rule. If possible, please post an image of your complete rule. * Some trigger and other steps... * When an…
  • Hi @eirens You may want to watch/vote for this suggestion about how those date fields are shown in the new view: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-70098 Best regards, Bill
  • Hi @Rajesh Viswanathan Not with the built-in chart, and there might be something in the market place for this. There are a couple of open suggestions to do so:…
  • Thanks for explaining that, @Pramodya Gamaethige Do you have tasks which change assignees during their progress? If so, you may not be able to get what you asked without some additional work. (Jira does preserve a history of assignees, and the querying of it is a bit more complicated than can support dashboard counting.)…
  • Hi @Eshwar Chand Ranga For an automation question like this, please consider posting both an image of your rule and an image of the audit log from the execution attempt. That will provide context for the community to offer you suggestions. Thanks! Best regards, Bill
  • Hi @Pramodya Gamaethige I am curious what problem are you trying to solve by showing individual person measures for a scrum team on a dashboard? Regardless of that issue, you cannot perform such a comparison with out-of-the-box JQL features of Jira. You would need to purchase marketplace addons for scripting or reporting,…
  • Hi @Joe Frisbie -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! Please note the link you provided is discussing features of the advanced roadmaps for the premium license, and you appear to be on the free license. And, the current features of the basic roadmap for free and standard licenses appear to only show the epic summary.…
  • Hi, Rick! I'm well, and thanks for asking. Are you on cloud or server/data center? And if cloud, which version: free, standard, premium, etc.? Regarding automatic sprint scheduling/management... * There are some posts in this community forum about how to automate these on server/data center using scripting add-ons from the…
  • HI @Maciej Smogorzewski Adding on to what @John Funk suggests... At this time, there is no concept of dynamic looping in automation for Jira. That means that when you create a new component value, you would need to modify your rule to handle the new value. Best regards, Bill
  • Hi krunng@hso.com You may use startOfMonth() for that. Please see here for more details: https://support.atlassian.com/jira-core-cloud/docs/advanced-search-reference-jql-functions/#Advancedsearchingfunctionsreference-startOfMonthstartOfMonth-- Best regards, Bill
  • You should be able to edit the custom field, setting the calculated value to it.
  • Hi @Yakub Mohamoud The short answer is, "no". Your options are to: * Leave the swimlanes option set by assignee so everyone sees it that way, all the time * Add the PM as a project admin, so both of your can change the swimlane views * Use the quick filter work-around suggested by @sudarshan . Although, this would be no…
  • Thanks for that info. Now you need to decide when you want this value updated, such as on a schedule (e.g. daily) or whenever a work item changes. Here is an example if you wanted to trigger this manually: * Trigger: manual * Condition: issueType is epic * Action: lookup issues with JQL to get all issues with "Epic Link" =…
  • Hi @Yakub Mohamoud Would you please clarify what you are trying to achieve? The swimlane by assignee already does what you note for the board. And if you are instead selecting another swimlane-by type, you could select each possible assignee's avatar on the board to filter by them. Thanks, and best regards, Bill
  • Hi @Neil Rafol Depending upon how you define "% complete" you may be able to do this using automation for Jira rules and a custom field...or just email the results. For example, let's say you ignored sizing/estimation and just counted issues. You could count the total things in an epic and divide that into the number…
