How can I see the task with the most logged hours?

Martin Gauss July 14, 2017

Hi, I am using JIRA Cloud (latest).

I want to see the Top10 tasks with the most logged hours over the last few months/sprints.

Is this possible?

Thanks!

You could use the following JQL and just look at the first 10 issues. Make sure the "Time Spent" column is configured to appear.

timespent > 0 ORDER BY timespent DESC

You could also save this as a filter and use a Filter Results gadget on a dashboard, then show only 10 issues at a time. The top 10 would always be displayed first.

I should note that this will return ALL issues in JIRA that have time spent on them. If you want the top 10 in a particular sprint, in the past couple months, etc., you'll need to add some parameters to your JQL query.

Wow! This works exactly as I need it. Thanks for the quick and great answer! :)

why timespent > 0 ? if you use DESC, they should be at the bottom anyway. But when I have not added this, it gives me task with timespent 0 at the top. What is this?

 

But even if I added timespent > 0 , it does not show first task with most time spent. It is somewhere between the list,    if I filter also by issue type, I see it.
