Dynamic filters

Dynamic filters

Overview

Dashboards provide a view of data in the form of metrics and indicators, often intended for a specific audience, such as an engineering team, a leadership board, or a technical support department. You can use dynamic filters to refine the data displayed on your dashboard to highlight different metrics and indicators for different contexts.

To use dynamic filters, in the top bar of the dashboard, click Filters to open the Dynamic Filter bar.

Available filters

Dynamic filters apply to Jira gadgets. The quick filter options include Projects, Work Item Types, Status, Assignee, and Created Date. Click the More button to select one of the additional options: Request Type, Reporter, Labels, Updated, Due Date, or Resolution Date.
You can also use the free text, Contains text field to filter results for text matches.

The Contains text option only returns matches for the Summary and Key fields.

Gadgets that contain filtered data are highlighted in a blue border. If the gadget doesn’t have matching data, it will display the message, No data to show.

The number of filters applied to the dashboard is displayed on the Filters button. In the example below, two filters are selected. To clear all filters, click Clear.

The values of the fields in the Dynamic Filter bar depend on the data loaded in the dashboard to avoid data leaks and improve performance.

Individual filtered gadgets

The selected filters apply to all relevant gadgets. To manage the filter for each gadget, hover the pointer over the gadget name to display the filter toggle, then toggle the filter on or off. When a filter is on, the filtered status is displayed. If you disable it, the content of that gadget won’t be affected by the selected filters.
