Sprint Health Gadget with Multiple Board Filter

[Scott Martin]

I have 4 scrum teams each with their own board. I have created a filter and subsequently a board to aggregate the stories and bugs for all 4 teams for a specific sprint. The board works great, unfortunately when I used the board in the Sprint Health Gadget, the gadget only shows the results from the first team I selected in the filter. 

Is this just the limitations of the Sprint Health Gadget or has anyone been able to get this to work?

Curious, whats the JQL on your Filter for the combined 4 teams. 

The reason I ask is typically a "board" is a team, so if the 4 teams work on the same board, they have one Sprint between the four, and the behavior I'd expect is that the 4 teams from your filter would be merged into one super team, but if they have 4 different sprints, that's most likely the cause is because it can only display 1 "sprint" at a time, when you add the gadget you see it says sprint singular.

Now you can get hack-job-y and get all 4 teams into the same sprint, but that's not recommended, causes other problems down the line.

Best answer would be to do 4 Sprint Health Gadgets as tiles on your Dashboard/Confluencepage what-have you.

Even if the sprints are named the same, they have an unique ID in the background that can cause them to be "unique"

Hi Carl, the teams currently each have their own boards; this is strictly an experiment and the "super" board is for my use/eyes only. I think my issue is exactly what you pointed out - although all 4 teams are in the same sprint on the project, in Jira each of their respective sprints has a unique ID therefore it looks like the I won't be able to use my aggregated filter in the Sprint Health Gadget. Below is my JQL:

project = CRTM AND issuetype in (Bug, Epic, Story, Task) AND "RTM Team" in (RTM-A, RTM-B, RTM-C, RTM-D) AND Sprint in (2221, 2214, 2223, 2234)

I will most likely go with 4 tiles but I was swinging for the fences, just in case I connected :)

Thanks for your help.
