The Smart Dashboard Two Dimension Chart Gadget displays a cross-tabulated matrix analysis of Jira issues by combining two distinct Jira fields across an X-axis and Y-axis. When connected to a Smart Dashboard Control Gadget, the matrix updates automatically in real time to reflect your active filter criteria.

💡 How to Use the Two Dimension Chart Gadget
-
Analyze Intersecting Data: Review cell values to quickly understand how work is distributed across two variables at once (e.g., how many In Progress tasks are assigned to each team member).
-
Interactive Filtering: Change criteria in the Smart Dashboard Control Gadget on the same dashboard to narrow down matrix counts in real time.
-
Identify Workload & Bottlenecks: Spot overloaded team members, unassigned critical items, or blocked issues across projects instantly.
Set Assignee as the X-Axis and Status as the Y-Axis to create an effective workload matrix for daily standups, sprint reviews, and team capacity planning.
