You can track usage of your templates with:
- Templates ranking – list of templates with their usage stats
- Stats per template – detailed usage data and history for a particular template
This way, you can:
- See which templates are used most often and are most popular among your team — to know what works best
- See least used, potentially abandoned templates — to clean up
- Analyze in which issues particular templates were — to see the full context of the communication
- Discover effective personal templates used by your team — to popularize best practices
- Analyze detailed history log for templates — to audit the changes and usage
- ...
Templates ranking
To see templates stats – navigate to the "Insights" page via your project menu in Jira.
The table features the templates by their:
- name,
- visibility scope,
- number of issues they were used in,
- number of people they were used by,
- date on when they were last used.
Please note:
- Clicking on the issues number will let you view the issues in the Jira issue browser
- The templates might be highlighted in colors based on the "last used" date – yellow after 180 days and red after 360 days
Filters
You can use filters to refine what you see in the table:
- Templates filters (Templates and Visibility scopes) — refine which templates are displayed on the list
- Usage filters (Used between, Used in projects, Used by, Used in fields) — refines what type of usage is counted in the stats
Stats per template
To see templates stats – click the "Insights" button by the template on the list of templates or in the edit dialog.
You can analyze:
- Usage over time– with number of issues the template was used in
- History of the template – when and by whom it was created, edited, and used in issues
