Scatter Plot Gadget in Jira

The Scatter Plot Gadget in the Time Metrics Tracker add-on provides a visual representation of issue duration in a specific time metric. It helps users analyze performance trends, detect outliers, and evaluate workflow efficiency.

How It Works

  • Each dot on the Scatter Plot represents a Jira issue with its corresponding time metric value.

  • The X-axis represents the timeline (date).

  • The Y-axis represents the duration (time spent in a status or between statuses).

  • You can zoom in on specific areas of the scatter plot by selecting a portion of the chart with the mouse. This allows for a detailed view of specific time ranges or issue clusters.

Key Features

Visual Analysis – Quickly identify trends and anomalies in your workflow.
Custom Metrics – Choose which time metric (e.g., Cycle Time, Lead Time, Time in Progress) to display.
Interactive Zoom – Select a section of the chart with your mouse to zoom in for detailed analysis.
Real-time Updates – The data is updated automatically as new issue data becomes available.

How to Use the Scatter Plot Gadget

  1. Add the Scatter Plot gadget to your Jira dashboard from the Time Metrics Tracker add-on.

  2. Configure the time metric you want to display (e.g., Cycle Time, Resolution Time).

  3. Adjust filters to narrow down issues by project, assignee, or issue type.

  4. Use the interactive zoom feature to select a section of the scatter plot and get a closer view of specific timeframes.

  5. Analyze trends and outliers to optimize team performance.
