Can I see all issues assigned to me across multiple JIRA instances on one dashboard?

[Max Diener]

Hi Community,

Our organization has two instances of JIRA for two different business units. Part of this is due to some non-disclosure/security concerns. 

Some of our employees are assigned tasks in each instance of JIRA. We have already linked the two instances so that a user can switch between the two. However, it would be ideal if I could have a dashboard which shows me all tasks assigned to me, regardless of source instance.

Anyone know if this is possible? I have seen lots of third party apps that allow for issue linking, but nothing that expressly addresses a need for a dashboard widget that will reference projects in multiple instances. The closest that I have seen so far would be something like Backbone for JIRA, linking all issues, and then creating a filter that references the appropriate project.

Thanks!

I think it is called federating Jira instances. You can read more info here

Hi @Max Diener

Have you tried this app?

Hey @Max Diener 

As for Carlos's advice with WatchTower as vendor behind it can add  - you can issues on one board from Cloud and Server instances. You define source with your credential and JQL to pull issues - that's it. There after UX is similar to usual Agile board you used to

Hey @Max Diener

I am not aware of any way to do this. 

The Backbone for Jira add-on does look to be the closest way possible.

But if there is non-disclosure/security concerns, I don't see where having this functionality would be approved of anyway.

It would be cool to see if anyone can come up with a way, just for curiosity reasons.

Hi Brittany, thanks for the reply. Bummer that you don't know of anything, but I will update if I come across a good solution.

Our executives and project managers have responsibilities in both organizations and have the required clearance to view all issues, so I'm after a way to make sure they only need to view one dash to see all tasks. I know some will forget to check their second dashboard :)

I just got confirmation that it's not possible. Since they are diff db's maybe you could try doing something with geckoboard or something similar.

Just a thought.
