The Grouped Filter Results (by sumUp) gadget can be used to calculate sums of multiple fields while the source issues are grouped by one custom field.



Configuration

Filter

Select an existing filter or choose to enter custom JQL.

JQL

Only available if Custom JQL was selected in the Filter parameter.

No need to create hundreds of filters to be used in various gadgets - simply define the result set by adding custom JQL!

Columns to display

Add fields to be displayed as columns and reorder them using drag and drop.

Only certain fields can actually be summed up (e.g numeric fields, text fields with numeric values etc.)

Group by

Select a field that will be used to group the results on the y-axis.

Examples:

Issue typeStatus

Number of results

Choose how many results you want to display on your dashboard.

Additional options

Optionally, you can set different additional options to change the behavior of this gadget.

The following additional options are available:

OptionDescription
Auto refresh

Check this option to refresh the results of the gadget every 15 minutes.

Enabling this option is useful when displaying information that needs a periodic refresh. For example, displaying the gadget on a wallboard.

Group by name

This option is helpful if you wish to group the results by fields that share the same name or the options. For example, if you have a fix version named "EAP_Q2" across multiple projects, checking this option will ensure the results will be grouped under the same name instead of showing them as separate entries.

  • By default, all values will be grouped by their ID, meaning that fields or options that share a common name will be treated as two different values, since they don't have the same ID in the database.
    When checking the checkbox , options with the same option name will be treated as one option , even though they are saved as different values in the database.

  • This option is not available for all the fields. It is only available on selecting the certain fields in "Group by" section that could share same name or options. Some of the fields where this option is applicable are:
    • Versions
    • Components
    • Issue type
    • Severity
    • Sprint
    • Status
    • Option-based fields
Issue navigator links

If you are someone who likes seeing the issues behind numeric entries on the gadget, this option is your match. With this option checked, you are taken to the Issue navigator page every time you click on a numeric entry on the sumUp gadget. Once you are on the Issue navigator page, you can see the JQL (and subsequently the issues) that accounts for the numeric entry displayed on gadget.


In case of text fields, it is not possible to perform an exact search due to limitations of Jira Cloud JQL, so it may happen that more issues are shown than expected. If the text field contains special characters ( ((" ") + . , ; ? !| * / % ^ $ # @ [ ]) <>), they will be ignored in the JQL search.

If you do not usually go to the Issue navigator or if the loading time for your gadget is too high, leave the option unchecked.
