Hello @Ramesh Krishnan 

Jira Cloud does not provide native Control Chart or Velocity Chart gadgets for dashboards, despite having these reports available in the project reports section. This is a well-documented limitation, you can find similar community posts on this below:

• https://community.atlassian.com/forums/Jira-questions/Can-we-show-the-control-chart-on-the-Jira-Dashboard/qaq-p/2625643
• https://community.atlassian.com/forums/Jira-questions/Velocity-Chart-Gadgets/qaq-p/1743018
• There is also a Feature request here - https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-90480

Since native options aren't available, you'll need to use marketplace applications to add these charts to your dashboards. Here are the main solutions:

Great Gadgets App

• Provides both Control Chart Gadget and Team Velocity Gadget

• Free for Jira Cloud instances with up to 10 users

• Offers highly configurable charts with additional features like data export to CSV

• Includes multiple agile tracking gadgets beyond just these two charts

Agile Velocity Chart Gadget

• Offers individual, team, and cross-team velocity charts

• Provides 10 advanced sprint metrics

• Supports both Scrum and Kanban boards

• Includes benchmarking capabilities

Third-party solutions often provide more advanced features than what native Jira charts would offer, including better customization, data export capabilities, and additional metrics. In addition, these marketplace apps typically offer dedicated support and regular updates to maintain compatibility with Jira Cloud

I am looking in gadget. its available in report section. is there way to add those report in gadget dashboard

Hi @Ramesh Krishnan 👋

You're absolutely right — Control Chart is not available as a native Dashboard Gadget in Jira Cloud. Atlassian hasn’t yet made Control Chart directly embeddable on dashboards.

✅ Workaround Options:

🔹 1. Time in Status

If you're open to solutions, Time in Status offers:

• A Chart View with a similar insight to the Control Chart (duration spent in each status).

• Dashboard Gadgets to display the chart or table directly on your dashboard.

• Ability to filter by Project, Assignee, Sprint, or even Team and configure what you want to track (e.g., Cycle Time, Lead Time, or custom metrics).

Solution built by me team. 

🔹 2. Use Advanced Roadmaps (Limited)

If you're using Jira Premium, Advanced Roadmaps lets you group issues and monitor progress, though it doesn’t replicate the Control Chart directly.

🔹 3. Export Data & Visualize Outside Jira

Export data to Excel or Google Sheets and create a Control Chart manually — though it's not dynamic or automated.

Hope this helps!

Hi @Ramesh Krishnan 

If you would be interested in a mktplace app for this requirement, pls do take a look at 
Agile Velocity & Status Gadgets 

The app comes with few dashboard gadgets to track team member's / team's velocity / productivity based on story points / time spent / issue count in a sprint  and also track sprint status with multiple parameters.

Hi @Ramesh Krishnan,

As already mentioned, Jira does not natively offer such dashboard gadgets. A solution would be to try a plugin from the Atlassian Marketplace.

In case you want to try a plugin, our Great Gadgets app offers both Control Chart gadget and a Team Velocity gadget (for Scrum projects) but also a Kanban Velocity / Throughput gadget to be used with Kanban or JSM projects. 

Please find more details about these gadgets (and the many others offers by the same app) in these articles:

• https://community.atlassian.com/forums/App-Central-articles/8-gadgets-for-a-powerful-Scrum-dashboard-in-Jira/ba-p/1683063

For any questions about these gadgets, feel free to contact support@stonikbyte.com.

Regards,

Danut.

Currently those all chart generated based on Project, can we filter it based on team?

[Danut M _StonikByte_]

Hi @Ramesh Krishnan,

Yes, the Control Chart gadget supports data source of type JQL or Filter, which gives you the flexibility about what issues to include. In this case, configure the gadget with a filter/JQL that returns the issues of a certain team. Same applies for Kanban Velocity / Throughput gadget.

The Team Velocity gadget uses an agile board (Scrum) as data source. If you have an agile board for each team, just select the board of the team.

If multiple teams share the same agile board, you could use the option to filter the sprints by name of the team. But in this case you must have a sprint naming convention across all teams in which the sprint names contain the team name (e.g. Team A - Sprint 1, Team B - Sprint 1, Team A - Sprint 2 ...)

Hope this helps.

Danut.
