Explore your JIRA Data with Power BI

JIRA Software provides bug tracking, issue tracking, and project management capabilities for teams and organizations. The JIRA content pack for Power BI helps you quickly import JIRA data so you can get an instant dashboard to analyze workloads, see how quickly you’re resolving issues, visualize velocity over time, and more. Power BI helps you quickly filter by project or component to generate new insights into your JIRA data.

Congratulations to this month’s Featured Data Stories Gallery submissions

Last month we put out the call for education-themed submissions — along with other topics that interest you — to the Data Stories Gallery, and we got some fantastic entries! Congratulations to the grand winner and six runners-up. The inspiration topic for this month is “mystery”: show us your best data story about haunted houses, Sasquatch sightings, and other spooky data!

Return of the Dashboard Makeover Webinar!

Back in May we held one of our most popular webinars ever: a live Dashboard Makeover to review, revise, and improve entries from our Community. This month, we’re doing it again! Ask the experts at Microsoft and find out if the visual design of your work is helping to project your data story, or just creating confusion. Attend the live webinar on October 13, 2016 to see how our Power BI pros turn dashboards and reports from standard to shiny, sharing insights more efficiently and making a bigger impact on your audience.
