**I need help figuring out how to make a report in Jira that shows my daily work. I want to see:
- Time spent on tasks
- Comments I wrote about the work
- Which tickets and epics I worked on
I’ve looked around but can’t find exactly what I need. Is there a simple way to do this without adding extra stuff to Jira?
The main thing I want is to see everything I did today. Not just how long I worked, but what I actually got done. It would be great to have a quick summary of my results at the end of each day.
Has anyone done something like this before? Any tips or tricks would be really helpful!**
hey, i’ve got a quick solution for u! u can use the ‘worklog’ gadget on ur dashboard. just add it and configure it to show ur work for today. it’ll display time spent, comments, and tickets. not perfect, but it gets the job done without any fancy add-ons. hope this helps!
I’ve tackled this issue before, and here’s what worked for me: Use Jira’s ‘Work Log’ feature combined with a custom JQL query. Start by consistently logging your time and adding detailed work descriptions. Then, create a filter with a JQL query like ‘worklogAuthor = currentUser() AND worklogDate >= startOfDay()’. This will pull up all your logged work for the day.
For a more comprehensive view, consider using a Jira add-on like ‘Time in Status’ or ‘Tempo Timesheets’. These can provide more detailed reports without much setup. Alternatively, if you’re comfortable with scripting, you could create a custom script to pull this data from Jira’s API and format it as you need.
Remember, the key is consistent and detailed time logging. Make it a habit, and you’ll have a goldmine of data to work with.
I’ve experimented with various methods over the years, and here’s my approach. I set up a custom dashboard that targets key aspects of my work. I use the ‘Filter Results’ gadget for my assigned issues, the ‘Activity Stream’ for comments, and the ‘Issues In Progress’ to track ongoing tasks. To monitor time, I rely on the ‘Time Since Issues Report’ gadget. Additionally, I created a JQL filter to gather all tickets I updated during the day. A quick screenshot of this dashboard at day’s end rounds out my daily summary.
