Today’s deployment addresses some issues found with the new data loader:

  • We now catch all of the historical workflow changes regardless of how many changes have been made to the work item (AFJ-930)

  • If you use the “only items resolved after” option during data set creation, your data will now include items that are in progress and not started. The date limitation will only apply to resolved items. (AFJ-919)

  • Dashboard Gadget: This changes to searching from named statuses (To Do, Done etc) to the numerical ones (10001, 10002, 10100) in order to support Team managed projects. This workaround is necessary due to a long-standing Jira bug: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-76118. When configuring the gadget you’ll still see status names. However if you click on the icon to pull up the issue filter, the JQL statement will have status IDs and not names.

  • Dashboard Gadget: Fixed issue with board id’s not being pulled properly when selecting a board.

ActionableAgile:

  • Resolved a bug in which uploading a CSV without a non-date column after the workflow stages resulted in a fatal error.

Cycle Time Summary Dashboard Gadget:

  • You can now control when we start the Cycle Time clock for work items by setting Not Started statuses in the gadget configuration.

  • When you download the CSV from gadget, it is now formatted so that it can be imported into ActionableAgile

  • When you open up the filter from the gadget to look at the issues in the Issue Navigator the date range in the JQL query is now relative. This allows you to use it going forward and even import the filter into ActionableAgile.

  • We resolved some corner case issues in which start and/or finish dates were being improperly calculated (for the gadget only)

  • Fixed a bug in the Cycle Time Dashboard gadget where items that moved started and finished in the same day weren’t being properly calculated.

  • Added the ability to download a CSV of the start and end date for each item used to calculate the cycle time for the dashboard gadget in order to facilitate better troubleshooting when there are questions about the calculations.

  • Deployed a number of bug fixes in the beta Data Loader in preparation to move out of Beta.

  • Added anonymous usage analytics to new data loader (see our Data Security and Privacy Statement for more details)

  • Bug fixes:

    • Resolved JS errors showing up in logs generated by the Cumulative Flow Diagram

    • AFJ-572 Tooltips/hover on Heat Map did not show the correct column name

    • AFJ-582 Dot color settings were not being saved in localStorage

  • Auto-generating the copyright year

  • Fixed bug in new data loader in which loading a new data set erased one of your 10 starred data sets

  • Added more console logging to the new data loader to assist in troubleshooting of customer issues.

  • Adding alphabetical sort to list of data sources in the beta data loader

  • Temporarily removed pace percentile for individual items on the Aging WIP chart as the data would not update if the data selection for the chart changed.

  • Resolved issue that could cause Cycle Time Scatterplot and Throughput Run Chart not to render when changing time units.

  • Resolved issue that caused you to have to reload your data each time you come to ActionableAgile

  • Fixed issue where commas and other special characters in board column headers were breaking both the current board loader and the new data loader

  • Released bug fixes for new data loading beta feature

  • Released a new data loading experience as Beta and removed it from EAP

  • Fixed bug in which commas and other special characters in board column cause issues loading data (all problematic characters are now stripped out during data load)

  • Resolved issue where trend line setting was blocking data load when no done items exist.

  • Added in an access check page at https://actionableagile.55degrees-apps.net/accesscheck.html for customers to use to troubleshoot networking access issues.

  • EAP feature update:

    • Changed the new data loader link to be  “Load Jira issues (beta)” as it now includes Projects and Filters as well as Boards.

- 3.10.4

The following items were addressed in this release:

  • Cumulative Flow Diagram now renders properly when stages are no longer available

  • The links in the menu bar have been updated to point to the new 55 Degrees support site

  • Fixed an issue that blocked your CSV file from being imported if it didn’t have a non-date column after the workflow columns.

- 3.10.3

This release resolves issues related to the new beta data loader (Load Jira Issues (beta)):

  • In some cases the retrieval of the change history was not returned in the manner that the data loader expected. This cause data to be displayed incorrectly.

  • On systems with more than 50 boards, not all boards were retrieved and so you could not load the missing boards via the new board loader.

The main loading utilities (Load board, Load Project, Load Filter) are not affected by this.

- 3.10.2

This release resolves an issue where loading ActionableAgile would cause errors to appear in the JavaScript console. These were caused by Jira’s Web resource manager attempting to load resources that were already loaded.

- 3.10.1

This resolves some ui issues related to the new beta data loader where items were being rendered off-screen in certain conditions.

- 3.10.0

This new version brings the new data loading experience from Cloud to Server. The new experience is still in beta and has to be enabled by the administrator. (For more details - please visit our documentation).

We are also bundling the Portfolio Forecaster into ActionableAgile for Jira Server. In order to enable Portfolio Forecaster the administrator will need to configure access. For more details, please see our documentation.

In addition to all of that, the following bugs were resolved:

  • Various JS errors showing up in logs generated by the Cumulative Flow Diagram

  • AFJ-313  -  Dots’ Pace not affected by Done Items Selection in Aging WIP chart

  • AFJ-329  -  Issue changing time unit on CT Scatterplot and Throughput run chart

  • AFJ-460  -  Data not staying in localStorage in browser - having to reload every time

  • AFJ-572  -  Tooltips/hover on Heat Map does not show the correct column name

  • AFJ-582  -  Saved filters - Dot colours not being saved - Cloud and Server

- 3.9.4

This release resolves a security vulnerability and removes no longer needed content that is bundled into the app.

- 3.9.3.1

  • Fixed bug in which commas and other special characters in board column cause issues loading data (all problematic characters are now stripped out during data load)

  • Resolved issue where trend line setting was blocking data load when no done items exist.

- 3.9.2

This release resolves an issue where in some instances using a non-english language the Flagged field wasn't identified properly.

- 3.9.1

  • Fixed bug in Flow Efficiency chart calculations.

- 3.9.0-001

  • ​This release adds in the capability to disable the importing of custom fields for customers that are experiencing performance issues caused by a large number of global custom fields.

- 3.8.3

  • This release adds in support for issues in non-english Jira Software instances that make use of the "Flag issue" feature.

  • We no longer require that any workflow stage with a name containing the word Backlog and/or Options be the first workflow stage.

    • We have also fixed an issue where the "Load issues created after X date" was in some cases always applied

    .

    - 3.8.1

    • Performance fix: This release significantly reduces the data fetched by ActionableAgile for Jira in order to import custom fields. Only the Custom fields that have data on the issues are available to be selected from and it drastically reduces the size of the data payload returned from our queries.

    - 3.8.0

    • We've added in a new setting for Jira Server where you can adjust the number of issues fetched at a time while loading data if loading data hangs. This is helpful when you have issues with an unusually high volume of history data or you have significant network latency.

    • Fixed bugs regarding Summary Statistics for the Cumulative Flow Diagram when using chart controls.

    • Fixed errant cursor label on Flow Efficiency chart.

    • Removed Beta text for Calendar feature on Monte Carlo simulations and made them visible by default.

    • Added clarifying text to Stability module on Dashboard.

    • Fixed Sprint data so each sprint is listed separately and can be filtered separately for items in multiple sprints

    • Added Last Sprint data point for items in multiple sprints.

    - 3.7.13

    • Fixed bug so that Check for updates now respects the initial date limit setting from when you loaded the data

    • Started stripping out additional special characters from issue field names and values for extra security measures.

    • Updated the About ActionableAgile dialogue box contents so that the changelog URL points to the release notes for the Jira app and the version display is accurate.

    • We now support multiple fixVersions for a single Jira item. We show them as a list instead of showing only the first one.

    • We now add the project key to the item filter when loading from a board.

    • Fixed bug with Heatmap workflow stage labels so that they are always accurate when you toggle them back and forth.

    • Removed caching on lists shown when choosing which project, board, or starred filter to load so that the list is always up-to-date.

    - 3.7.12

    • Added a new option to the “Load board” screen. Now you can choose whether or not ActionableAgile for Jira should respect the board’s subquery when data is loaded. This is a global option.

    - 3.7.11

    • Adds in support for the Version Picker (multi) custom field as an importable field.

    • Updated the "Check for updates" behavior so that it no longer attempts to perform a partial update of the data and instead does a full reload. This resolves previous user-reported issues such as deleted items showing up in the data after deletion.

    - 3.7.10-002

    • Adds in support for Version custom fields

    • Adds the project key as an available field when loading data from Jira filters.

    • Updated board loading so that it always respects the Jira Software board subquery when loading from a Jira Software board.
