Visualize assignee's task on a timeline

Cynthia Kallas December 18, 2023

Hi,

I am trying to create a timeline from different projects in Jira with no success.

I have issues created in different projects, and I need to create a filter to select from those issues, and show them in a board based on their assignees and timelines.

The end goal is to check which resource will finish which task and when.

I have tried Jira and JWM, but could not find the best way to do so.

Anyone did something similar and can help?

Thanks,

@Cynthia Kallas I believe what you need is Plans (or Advanced Roadmap) which is only available in Premium and Enterprise editions. If you have that, I can try and provide some instructions for you.

Timeline in the project wont work because you are using issues from across multiple projects. And that tool only works when you use issues in one project.

Other options, of course, include exporting the data and using a third party tool or purchasing an add on through the marketplace.

Yes, good point! I missed the part about different projects. If you don't have premium, then, maybe you could leverage the dashboard to illustrate data across multiple projects by user. But you can't get a timeline type of you there

Hi @Cynthia Kallas , if you use the Timeline accessible from the project sidebar you can click on a user's avatar to get a visual timeline of the issues assigned to them. Is this not what you are looking for?

When I use the avatars to filter, it loses the hierarchy structure so we lose visibility into which Epic each issue belongs to. Any way around that?

Not in the timeline view.
