#313 - Feature request: Get aggregate timespent from linked issues

GYolshin commented on Aug 02, 2023

Checklist before you being

I am sure that I am already using latest version of Jira Assistant
I had verified that there are no existing requests with similar suggestion in issue tracker
I had verified that, my query is not answered in FAQ section of website

How do you use Jira Assistant?

Browser extension

Are you using cloud version of Jira or self hosted (data center / server) of Jira.

Self hosted (datacenter)

Version of Jira Assistant

v2.49

What browser are you using?

Chrome

Feature Suggestion

I use custom report to track aggregated spent time in my issues. Historically team mates use linked tasks to log their works, means that my report is not actual for such issues. In custom report in expressions I need to calculate aggregatetimespent field from issue itself and for linked as well. I tried to ask question (https://github.com/shridhar-tl/jira-assistant/discussions/310), but it has no answer yet. So I decided to ask for a new feature which implies next:

Add new util function that returns array of linked issues available in expression.

e.x. Utils.linkedIssues()

Using that function I'm planning to calculate sum of aggregatetimespent from linked issues with reduce().

Checklist before you submit

I have ensured not to paste any confidential information like Jira url, Mail id, etc.
I have added required screenshots (as necessary)

@GYolshin - I see I missed to respond to your query in #310. It is already feasible to do it. Last two weeks was a busy week for me and anything needing some analysis to respond, I tried to keep it for later.

I will provide you with a solution by this week end.

Latest updates

27-Nov-2023 - Change in permissions for JA

In upcoming version (v2.58) of JA, by default, permission to access Cloud instance of Jira would be added. This would let the users to integrate with Cloud instance of Jira without prompting for permission at the time of integration. Hence for Chrome users, once the extension gets updated, it would get disabled due to change in permission. You can enable it again from Extensions page. However, for Firefox and Edge, extension already have access to all the sites (though it doesn't really need) which would be narrowed down only to atlassian.net which would be a security improvement.

03-Jan-2023 - Auto update would take time

Jira Assistant is now updated in phased basis to avoid any breaking changes impacting all users. So it may take long time before your extension gets updated. If you want to manually update it immediately, just navigate to "chrome://extensions", turn on "Developer mode" from top right corner and click Update button. Then you can turn off dev mode.
