How to use
Clicking on stats would open a pop-up where the system accepts a JQL. And a return value. Return value identifies what kind of data will have to be extracted from the Jira issues that the JQL returns.
Typical use cases may include, informing audience about
Issue distribution based on priority, type, assignee etc
Time spent on different kinds of issues
Story point distribution across different issue types
Currently, the system can return number of issues the stored JQL retrieves. So a typical use of this would look something like the image below.
Note that you can also optionally display the number as a link that leads back to Jira.
