How do I change the Sprint Burn-down & Health Gadget to read issue count not story points

[Sian Snook]

We have just started using JIRA.

Only 1 of the teams currently is using Story points so is there a way of changing the Sprint Burndown & Health Gadget to read issue count not points?

Hi @Sian Snook you first need to set your estimation statistic.

The estimation statistic is important because it's used to calculate team velocity. For each sprint, the velocity is the sum of the Estimation Statistic for completed stories. If your team is consistent with its velocity, you can use it to determine how much work they can take on in each sprint, which is useful for sprint planning.

To set the estimation statistic:

1. Navigate to the board or backlog, then select more () >  Board settings.

2. Click the Estimation tab.
