The Rich Filter Smart Counters gadget displays multiple counters. The gadget is based on a rich filter, and the counters are based on the clauses of a smart filter. The gadget works as follows: 

  • the gadget builds a collection of issues based on the rich filter's base query and on the active quick filters (which means the results can be refined 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 computes counters based on the clauses of a smart filter; for each clause, there will be a counter;

  • the gadget can display results based on different values, like the number of issues (Issue Count) or the sum of the number and time tracking fields (such as Story Points or Original Estimate);

  • the gadget’s title can be customized.
