It's a feature you've been waiting for: ActionableAgile® Analytics charts in Jira Dashboards. 🎉

We’re excited to announce the release of native Jira Cloud Dashboard Gadgets for ActionableAgile® Analytics — bringing your most valuable insights directly to the place where your teams already work: Jira Cloud Dashboards.

This launch is a game-changer for teams, leaders, and stakeholders who want instant visibility into flow metrics without switching tools or exporting data.

Why This Matters

Until now, sharing ActionableAgile® Analytics insights with a wider audience has not always been seamless. Teams often had to export charts or guide non-users into the app, which worked but added friction.

With Jira Cloud dashboard gadgets, that barrier disappears. You can now:

Share charts easily with team members and stakeholders who don’t actively use ActionableAgile® Analytics.

See live updates whenever the dashboard is loaded — no need to export or refresh manually.

Bring agile insights into context by displaying them alongside other Jira data your team already tracks.

In short, this feature brings flow metrics visibility to everyone who needs it, not just direct users.

What’s Included in the First Release

We’ve started with the four most essential flow metric charts — the ones you told us you rely on the most.

Cycle Time Scatterplot

Visualize how long work items take to complete.
Spot trends, outliers, and opportunities for improvement.

Aging Work In Progress

Highlight work items that have been in progress the longest.
Take action before aging tasks become blockers.

WIP Run Chart

Track how much work is in progress over time.
Identify bottlenecks and manage workload more effectively.

Throughput Run Chart

See how many items your team completes per time period.
Monitor delivery pace and forecast future performance.

Together, these gadgets deliver a clear, accessible view of your team’s flow and predictability, right from the Jira dashboard.

How It Works

Adding these gadgets is quick and intuitive:

Go to your Jira Dashboard.
Search for “ActionableAgile” in the gadget search.
Add the chart you’d like to display.
In the configuration, choose the dataset and view settings you want.

That’s it! 🚀 Your chart will now appear on your dashboard, updating automatically whenever you load the page.

💡 Note: You can’t adjust full chart controls from the dashboard view — these are set by the chosen view in your dataset. To make sure your dashboard gadgets always look the way you want, just create and save a dashboard view in your dataset. You'll still be able to interact with some of the data displayed.

Permissions and Access

Editors (those with permission to edit a dashboard) can add and configure ActionableAgile® Analytics gadgets.
Viewers can see the charts but cannot modify them.

This ensures dashboards stay consistent while still giving everyone access to the insights they need.

A Few Things to Know

This release is available for Jira Cloud only.
Jira Data Center is not supported.
We’re starting with four core charts, with more to come in future updates.
Beyond new charts, we also plan to add insights from the chart data - giving you even deeper visibility and guidance right inside Jira.

Why We’re Excited (And You Should Be Too)

The release of Jira Cloud Dashboard Gadgets for ActionableAgile® Analytics is more than just a feature update — it’s a major step in making flow metrics a natural part of your team’s daily rhythm.

By embedding these charts where your teams already collaborate, we’re eliminating barriers, strengthening transparency, and making it easier than ever to build predictability into your workflow.

This has been one of our most anticipated customer requests, and we’re thrilled to finally deliver it. We can’t wait to see how your teams put it to use. If you’re on Jira Cloud, the gadgets are available now. Head to your Jira Dashboard, search ActionableAgile, and start adding your charts.
