📊🎥 How to Check User Activity in Jira [Video Guide]

[#1]

As a Product Manager, being able to see your team’s progress helps you keep things on schedule and detect any bottlenecks that might slow down work. Jira offers some functionality for tracking user activity. However, it is not always helpful in terms of visibility across multiple teams and projects. Let’s explore the possible options for checking user activity in Jira in this brief video guide.

Jira’s History tab

The History tab within Jira provides a straightforward overview of changes to a single work item. You can review when the status was updated, who made the change, and when the assignee was changed. It enables you to analyze a task in detail and track its progress.

The History tab has several limitations. You must open and check each item separately, as the activity is only tracked for each task. This can become very time-consuming and inefficient.

Go Beyond with Issue History for Jira app

Issue History for Jira (Work Item History) app makes it easy to track user activity throughout your entire Jira instance. You can use JQL filters to monitor updates across multiple projects and view which users made each change.

Moreover, it is possible to customize views. You can add or remove columns (e.g., Status, Time Spent, Assignee) and save the most frequently used views for future use. The app helps you manage sprint progress or daily work from one place, instead of moving between various work items.

If you want to track your team activity in Jira more effectively, Issue History for Jira is the right choice. Try it now! 🚀
