Add jira pie chart gadget in confluence
Asked by SKS:

Trying to add jira pie chart gadget in confluence but it asks for saved filter. When entering the filter name its not giving the option to select. How can I save the filter in confluence? I have saved filter in jira. I can use the same filter for issue statistics view in confluence.

Welcome to the Atlassian community!

Confluence doesn't provide a selection list from which you can select the filter you want. You simply have to type it in, as shown in the help text.

body: Thanks Trudy for the reply and for the welcoming wishes. I am trying below route to embed jira pie gadget. The filter field doesn't allow to enter any filters.

body: That is a different macro than the macro in the image I posted.

For the macro you are using you need to simply start typing in the name of the filter or project you want to use, and the screen will show you potential matches from your linked Jira instance.

body: Hello again! I am putting in my filter name but its not coming in the drop down list. I can use the same filter in your other suggested macro. Wondering why the same filter not picking up for pie gadget macro.


author: Trudy Claspill
body: Can you provide a screen image of what you see when you simply are typing in the filter name?


author: SKS
body: Hello Trudy, That is what I shared in the prior posted image.


author: SKS
body: I don't see the filter name in the drop down list and get dashboard.item.error.required.query error message.


author: Trudy Claspill
body: In the first image the field shows

**filter="XYZ"**

Don't type in **filter="**

Just type in the name of the filter that you saved; i.e. **XYZ**


author: SKS
body: I tried both ways i.e. filter as part of the syntax and without it. in both case dashboard.item.error.required.query error message. Though filter does work insert jira chart macro but the same not for the pie gadget macro.
