Bugs per a team

[RoyC]

Hi,

I would like to create a simple widget that will show me the amount of bug per each Team.

Is it possible? If yes, which widget I need to use for that?

Thanks.

Could you tell us a bit more how your Team can be seen from the single issue? If this can be found in any field in your issues, you can use the "Two dimensional statistic" gadget on your dashboard.

I'm talking on a specific project in our Jira, we have several development teams that should handle the bugs and I would like to see how many bugs per each team (bar chart will be good for this purpose).

By the way, if you will add the "Team" field into the X or Y axis, it will be possible to show what I need but currently there are many options but couldn't see the Team field.

A Standard Jira Instance does not have a Team field out of the box. Some Apps like e.g. Tempo brings such a field for its purposes that can be used for other things too. Second way is by just adding a custom field for this. 

After that you can use many of the available gadgets to visualize your data.

[RoyC]

Do you mean to create a custom field for Team's data?

If it's not a standard Jira instance, isn't it mean it's a custom field?

[Michael Bohlender]

Yes this is what I mean ;) But as I wanted to show you a screenshot of my recommendation on how to create this field, this is what my playground Jira showed me on the "Custom fields" as the welcome screen ...

So there is now a TEAM field available out of the box. Just assign it to your screens and projects and there you are :) When you click the "add" button you will be presented with all screens in your instance.

This should do the trick for you.

[RoyC]

Understood BUT if I already have this field available in my screens, isn't it mean it was created as custom field (base of the fact that the Team is not a standard Jira Instance)?

[Michael Bohlender]

No, then your projects probably have been created AFTER this field was introduced as a standard field. The new product Atlas is just starting to bring new features to belonging companion products and this is, what yo see. And of course if already available, you do not need to add a secone one as a pure custom field.

I obviously missed this new field when writing my first reply. Sorry for confusing you.

[RoyC]

So if I don't see the "Team" field in the optional fields it means that the field was created before the project and in such case I need to create another field with the same data right?

[Michael Bohlender]

Not necessarily. Not all technically available fields are also visible in the issue screen by default. You must probably change settings for your issue screens. There are still some differences between the backend screen settings and the settings for the new issue view. Can you provide screenshots showing the info about the Team field you found? 

[RoyC]

After discussing this issue with our Jira's admin I understood that the "Team" field is not a custom field and more than that Atlassian is making changes to this field in the past months (this is why we see the "new" label near to the field's name) and still didn't finish with this field - this is probably why we don't see this field in the list for a relevant widget.

We can create a custom field base on this field but it will require maintenance for every change we will do for the original "Team" field.

[Michael Bohlender]

I will play around on my side with this new Team field to see, how it can be used in the widgets.

[Michael Bohlender]

Finally found the time for some tests ... I have a freshly created Jira Workmanagement Site I just checked. The TEAMS field is available out of the box to be made visible in the issue screens. Still empty as we did not use it so far, but available.

I placed the "Two dimensional filter statistics" gadet on my dashboard with a saved filter to display the open issues of the project. But the Teams field is not available in the two flipdowns for X- and Y-axis. And the content of these two flipdowns seems somewhat "fixed" to me, as there are fields selectable that we even have not visible in the issues.

So you might be stuck at the point that the field is there and usable in the issues but not for the gadgets, or at at least not for all of them.

[RoyC]

Yes, this is what I also saw.

Thanks for your help.

Will wait for updates.

[RoyC]

Checking with our admin. Will update.
