Embed Kanban Board's Cumulative workflow in JIRA Dashboard

[Nikul Vyas]

With reference to the question asked here: 

Solved: I can't find the cumulative flow chart,

The current gadgets provided by JIRA do not provide the cumulative workflow chart in JIRA Dashboard, I have a requirement from the stakeholders to have a tiny chart for Kanban cumulative workflow embedded in Dashboard rather than opening JIRA Reports separately, the burndown chart of scrum is available but not the cumulative workflow. Is there a place where I can submit this as a feature intake to Atlassian for JIRA Dashboards?

Hi @Nikul Vyas 

Short answer: if you want an actual CFD on a dashboard soon, please investigate the Atlassian Marketplace for addons.

For many years, there have been several suggestions to add Atlassian's interpretation of a Cumulative Flow Diagram (CFD) to dashboards as a gadget, including these:

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-4916
https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-5662
https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-90221
https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-16178

Some of these requests are over 20 years old, and there are several more marked as "won't do".  Even if the built-in chart was added as a dashboard gadget, it has many problems reducing its effectiveness for flow management.

I recommend first checking with your Jira Site Admin to learn if you already have any marketplace addons for such gadgets.  If not, pause to consider what features you want in a CFD and then check the marketplace for options: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/
