Supported JIRA Fields

Overview

At a glance, Dataplane supports analysis of the following field types:

• Dataplane supports the majority of built-in JIRA fields
• Dataplane supports the majority of standard JIRA custom fields
• Dataplane supports custom fields from JIRA Agile, from nFeed and from the Script Runner add-ons
• Dataplane supports all other third-party custom fields that are "stattable"

Description

Support for different field types varies slightly based on the context and type of Dataplane report being used. For example, historical reports support a different set of fields than current reports, since not all JIRA fields are indexed historically. Additionally, only numeric-typed fields can be used in areas of the application that require a numeric field, and only date-typed fields can be used when plotting issues on a dateline.

The tables in the following sections describe which custom fields are available within the various parts of Dataplane. In detail:

Values in the Segment/Value Of (Current) column can be used in the Segment By or Value Of fields of any current values (ie. non-historical) report.

Values in the Segment/Value Of (Historical) column can be used in any historical (date-based) report that supports the Segment By or Value Of options.

Values in the Issue Worklog describe the values that can be selected for segmentation in the Issue Work Log Table report, the Work Logged by Date report, the Project Work Logged by Date report, and the User Work Logged by Date report.

Values in the Sum Numeric Field include only numeric-formatted fields that can be selected in the Issue Field dropdown for the Sum Numeric Field report, the Sum Numeric Field by Date report, and the Issue Values Snapshots Sum by Date report.

Values in the Date Basis column include only date-formatted fields which can be selected in the Date Basis dropdown for any report that supports date-based reporting, including the Issues by Date report, the Issues Created by Date report, the Issues Resolved by Date report, and the Sum Numeric Field by Date report.

Other Third-Party Custom Fields

Dataplane supports all other third-party custom fields that are "stattable", or more specifically, those which support the CustomFieldStattable interface. In general, JIRA's own built-in dashboard gadgets support only stattable fields, so if a given third-party custom field works within standard JIRA gadgets, it will generally work with Dataplane as well. If in doubt, please ask the add-on vendor whether or not the custom field is stattable, or contact us for more information.

A third-party plugin, Stattable Searchers, may also be helpful when trying to use a third-party custom field that is not otherwise stattable.

Custom Field Type	Segment/ Value Of (Current)	Segment/ Value Of (Historical)	Issues Table Report	Issue Worklog Segmentation	Sum Numeric Field (By Date) Numeric Fields Only	Date Basis Date Fields Only
Any other third-party "stattable" custom field

Please note that Dataplane can retrieve only current values from stattable fields.
