Request for Guidance on JIRA API for Burn Chart Data Extraction

Nandhini Vijayakumar December 9, 2024

 

Hi Team,

We are currently developing a dashboard in Qlik Sense and need to extract data from the burn chart using the JIRA API. This data will populate the velocity report, including metrics such as committed, completed, and scope change, on the dashboard.

Could you please guide us on how to retrieve the burn chart data through the JIRA API?

Thank you!

Hi @Nandhini Vijayakumar 

This would require you to search all issues related to the burn down chart.

You then will have all issues, and you will need to do the calculations in Qlik Sense

Reports are not accessible via the API.

Got it, Marc. Do we have any options for calculating the committed story points at the sprint start?

HI @Nandhini Vijayakumar 

Committed Story Points is a value that Jira calculates when a sprint is started by looking at the Story Points field of the standard issues in your sprint, but it is not stored in a field that you can export.

You would need to export the issues in your sprint, including the Story Points values, right at the beginning of your sprint. 

Or pull the information using Automation that triggers at the Start of each sprint, and save the information elsewhere using Send Email or another output option.
