Create a custom dashboard using Jira's REST API, with Temporal View of data

[kamal5555ahmed]

I am looking to create a custom dashboard in which I would display:

1. Number of Open Issues Per Project with TYPE="508"
2. With the Time axis division as "daily" or "weekly"
3. Number of Closed Issues Per Project with TYPE="508"
4. With same X-Axis

Here is a JQL to start with, but this JQL does not get continuously progressive data:

project = ZZZZ AND (summary ~508 or labels = 508) and created >= -4w and type != epic

Is Jira API the only way to do it? If yes, then how would I create the Front end, should I use React, or VueJS or this can be done from Confluence using JQL? or REST API.

So the question also is:

1. Where would this data be stored?
2. Does the Jira API able to get ALL data ( is a first class citizen )?
3. JQL VS REST API, which one to use in this case.
