Jira Align API - Epic Scorecard?

[Nigel Jewell]

Hi,

Is the data available on the Epic Scorecard available via the Jira Align API?  Ideally I'd have access to each value, but I can live with just the calculated Value Score if needed.  Current trials and a documentation hunt isn't looking promising ...

Thanks,

Nige.

@Nigel Jewell:

Fetching Value scores of EPIC is not possible via API. I know it is not good news.

Hovewer there is a suggestion JIRAALIGN-4943 Add "Value Score" to Epics and Capabilities API.

Status: IN PROGRESS

Kindly go to the suggestion and upvote and follow the suggestion so that it gets highlighted more.

@Nigel Jewell This data is available in Jira Align Enterprise Insights which is the data mart for Jira Align that is purpose built for custom reporting and querying. I wrote an article on how to query and calculate these values from Enterprise Insights. Here is a link to the article: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Align-articles/Calculating-Value-Score-for-Epics-with-Jira-Align-Enterprise/ba-p/2141897.

If you are using the APIs for reporting, it is not recommended as the more calls that are made to the APIs it can impact the performance of your Jira Align instance. That is because the APIs read and write directly to the Jira Align database. Enterprise Insights is a separate database that has and hourly sync with Jira Align.
