Sharing Dashboards

Overview

You can show a configured dashboard to your team without making everyone rebuild it: share a read-only link. The recipient sees the same dashboard with the same widgets and settings — but cannot change anything.

Typical scenarios:

• a team dashboard opened at standups or process reviews;
• a metrics "showcase" for a manager or a neighboring team;
• one canonical dashboard for several people instead of a copy for each.

Sharing is available on the Expert plan.

How to Share

1. Open the dashboard you want to share.
2. Click the Share icon in the page header.
3. In the Share Dashboard dialog, click Copy Link and send the link to your colleagues.

What the Recipient Sees

The link opens the dashboard in read-only mode:

• all widgets are visible with up-to-date data — but the recipient sees their own data: whatever they have access to in your Jira;
• editing is unavailable — no settings, no adding widgets, no dragging;
• someone else's dashboard cannot be re-shared.

To view the dashboard, the recipient needs to:

1. have access to the same Jira instance as you (the link is useless to people outside your Jira);
2. sign in to a JiraMetrics.Pro account — if the recipient is not signed in, they will see a sign-in screen.

The recipient does not need a paid plan — any signed-in user can view shared dashboards.

The Link Stopped Working?

If the recipient sees the message "This shared dashboard is unavailable", the dashboard was deleted by its owner, access was revoked, or the link is broken. Ask the owner to send the link again.

Data Freshness

The link points to the "live" dashboard, not a fixed copy: if the owner changes the widgets or settings, recipients see the updated version the next time they open it. The data itself is loaded from Jira by each user independently — the numbers are always current as of the moment of viewing.
