Activity Stream filtered by current user

[Joaquim Bravo Jordana]

I'm looking to set up a global dashboard that's shared across our team. For the filter result gadgets, I've found that they can be based on currentUser, but I'm wondering if the same is possible for Activity Stream results. Currently, I know I can assign specific users, but I'd prefer to see results only for the current user.

If this is not possible, and not feasible to implement it by Atlassian, what other options do we have? Are there alternative gadgets/scripts available that offer similar functionality? Another idea is to export the existing gadgets so that each user can create their own dashboard using their personal activity stream, how can I export gadgets? or a modular dashboard?

Hi Joaquim - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

No, you can't add a stream by current user. And there would be no need to export a gadget, they can just create a new personal dashboard and add the gadget themselves. Then add a Filter and select their user ID.

okay, so we cannot have a generic dashboard to share within the team...

understood, thanks

No, not with current user for the activity stream. You should make that suggestion to Atlassian.

Hi, Joaquim! 

I have a dynamic dashboard that I use with my colleagues. It doesn't have the activity stream, but it does have a bunch of Filter Results gadgets geared at different metrics:

• issues where the user is assigned, or watching, or the reporter, e.g.&

  issuetype != "Approval Sub-task" AND assignee = currentUser() AND statusCategory != Done ORDER BY priority DESC, duedate ASC

• user's assigned issues that are overdue, over their estimates, or blocked, e.g.

  assignee = currentUser() AND statusCategory != Done AND status not in ("On Hold", "In Negotiation") AND duedate < startOfDay(-1) ORDER BY duedate DESC, priority DESC

  
  and
• mentions of the user, e.g. 

  comment ~ currentUser() ORDER BY updated DESC

I'd also love to be able to create an activity stream targeted to a dynamic user - actually running on basically those same queries.

Hi @Anne Saunders 

Jira's Activity Streams gadget provides a selection of specific users but no ability to filter by the current user. If you are open to using apps, you can explore the one developed by my team.

Activities gadget by Issue History allows filtering by the current user:

You can use your existing filters and add Updated by: Current user as shown above. Other filters (JQL, project, dates) are also available.
