Chart Templates on the Getting Started page

We’ve introduced a new way to discover chart features—by combining them into templates tailored to Agile teams' most common use cases.

Whether you start creating a chart from the dashboard (by adding a gadget) or the app page, you’ll land on the Getting Started Page, which features a navigation menu and a template catalog.

A template is simply a chart with preselected settings that you can adjust however you like. To start creating a chart, just click the button that appears when you hover over the template cover.

If you're not sure which template is right for you, you can always start with the default chart creation option:

Allows you to track throughput for one or multiple releases.
Tip: Use breakdown by release to understand the dynamics separately.

Scrum boards with sprint filters

JSM and JPD support without any workarounds

Before this version, you couldn’t use Jira Service Management and Jira Product Discovery projects as data sources smoothly—you had to tweak settings to select the specific issue types used in your projects, which made chart configuration cumbersome and not always transparent.

Since this version, the chart will display all standard issues from your projects by default:

If you want to filter certain issue types or select all sub-tasks, you have that ability:
