The Rich Filter Pie Chart gadget displays the collection of issues grouped by a specific field/criteria as a pie chart. It is similar to Jira’s built-in Pie Chart Gadget, but it is based on a rich filter instead of a Jira saved search and thus adds several new features:

  • the collection of issues used for the statistics can be furthered further filtered using Rich Filter Controller gadgets;

  • the gadget itself can further refine the results by applying a gadget-specific JQL that we call a working query;

  • the gadget can break down the results by an issue field or by a smart filter;

  • the value type displayed by the gadget can be customized (for instance, to show the sum of Story Points instead of the Issue Count);

  • the gadget supports multiple display layouts;

  • the gadget’s title can be customized.

Rich Filter Extensions

Rich filter extensions are separate Jira apps that can be installed on top of the Rich Filters for Jira Dashboards app to extend the rich filters and rich filter gadgets with new specific functionality.

New statistic options are available if you add any of the these extensions:

Description

Title

Optionally, you can customize the title of the gadget. If left blank, the default title will be Rich Filter Pie Chart.

Rich Filter

Select the rich filter the gadget will use.

Click on the Rich Filter button to display the list of rich filters; you can either scroll through or use the search box to find the desired filter you need.

Info

The gadgets’ configuration forms only show the rich filters you are allowed to can view. See Check the permissions section on permissions for more details.

Tip

The link in the description line below the Rich Filter button opens a new page with the configuration of the selected rich filter.

Also, when the gadget is in display mode, you can navigate directly to the its rich filter of the gadget using the Rich Filter option in the menu at the top right of the gadget.

Working Query

The working query is a JQL query that is combined with the rich filter's base filter of the rich filter before searching for issues. The working query is optional: if left empty, only the base Jira filter and the quick filters affect the issues displayed.

Statistic Type

Select the issue field or the smart filter on which the issues will be grouped. This setting is mandatory.

Tip

Pie charts are ideally suited to visual representation of visually representing statistics that split issues into separate categories. In Jira, they work best if they are applied to single-value fields , or to smart filters with mutually exclusive clauses. Although you can use them with multi-valued fields, the resulting pie chart will be more difficult to interpret.

Maximum slices

Insert a numeric value between 2 and 10 to choose the maximum number of slices displayed by the gadget displays. If the value is empty, then the gadget will display a maximum of 10 slices.

If there are more statistic values than exceed this limit, the smallest slices are collapsed into a single Other slice.

Sort slices by

Select how to sort the slices of your Pie Chart:

  • Total: this will sort the slices by their values, starting with the largest slice. This is the default option.

  • Natural: this  This will use the issue field’s or smart filter’s native sorting order, i.e., the order that has been configured for the options of each field or smart filter's options.

Special If they exist, special slices such as Other or None , if they exist, are always displayed at the end.

Values

Select the output type to be computed for each Statistic Type group. There are five kinds of possible values:

  • Issue Count: computes the number of issues in each group.

  • Time Tracking: computes the sum of one of the time-tracking fields (i.e., Original Estimate, Remaining Estimate, Time Spent) for all issues in each group.

  • Σ Time Tracking: the same as Time Tracking, but for each issue it also includes the values in its sub-tasks for each issue.

  • Numeric: computes the sum of a numeric field for all issues in each group. For instance, if using Jira Software, the gadget can show how many the number of Story Points there are for each Statistic Type group.

  • Σ Numeric: the same as Numeric, but for each issue it also includes the values in its sub-tasks for each issue.

Layout

You can chose choose one of several layouts to display the results:

  • Pie Chart - compact: a modern pie-chart layout that doesn’t take up a lot of space on the dashboard.

  • Pie Chart - classic: a larger layout, similar to Jira’s built-in pie chart.

  • Sliced Bar Chart: The most compact layout is useful for data-dense dashboards.
