How to link one gadget to another in JIRA

Madhu April 22, 2019

How can I make a gadget to display the results of a filter?

 

For example i have 5 filters, each with results of a project (columns display filed of interests). I want to show the 5 projects as hyperlinks (using Text gadget) and when one clicks on the hyperlink it should take them to the filter for that particular project.

 

Thanks!

You could create 5 dashboards, each with the filters for the specific project. Then have your Text gadget on a primary landing page with links to each appropriate dashboard.

Thanks Derek! I tried that but when I click on the link, it shows the entire webpage for the dhasboard inside the space allocated to the gadget. Which kind of looks weird. 

Any other way?

Use the target attribute in your <a> tag. You can either overwrite the current window or force a new tab/window to open.

Could you please give an example. I am using below:

 

<a href="url">Title </a>

I tried this but still its opening in the same gadget area.

<a href="url"> Title </a>
<base target="_parent">

Can you indicate that this was solved by changing the title and marking it as solved? That will help others

Sure!

I could not find the Text Gadget in JIRA. Any other Gadget that works in similar way?
