ActivityTimeline Cloud: Released on
ActivityTimeline Server/DC: Released on
Recommended: Backup your Jira’s database before the upgrade.
Important note: AT v12.x update performs an automatic ActivityTimeline’s data migration for better performance on the first start so it may take a few minutes for the first start after an upgrade from v11.x depending on the amount of issues in your Jira DC.
This version update includes the following enhancements:
-
Team Capacity Chart - New Workload Options: You can now Include/ Exclude Workload for Users and Workload for Team Panel directly in the Team Capacity Chart. You can now analyze workload either at a high-level team view or drill down into individual user capacity within the same chart.
-
Team Utilization Forecast (Detailed) - New Workload Options: We’ve added the same Include/ Exclude Workload for Users and Workload for Team Panel options when grouping in the detailed Team Utilization Forecast. This allows you to switch between team-level and individual-level forecasting depending on how your planning is structured.
-
Re-formatted Skill & Position Availability Reports: We’ve refreshed the layout and structure of Skill & Position Availability reports for better readability and easier analysis. The new format makes it simpler to compare availability across roles and teams.
-
Introduced support for team-level assignments in the Project Resources Forecast: The report now by default provides a complete view of project load by counting both user and team allocations.
-
Improved Sprint Grouping in Reports: Reports now support clearer sprint grouping with All Sprints and Latest Sprint options taken into account. When Latest Sprint is selected, each issue is shown only under its most recent sprint, avoiding duplicates across past sprints.
-
Bearer Token Support for REST API: REST API requests now support authorization via Bearer API Tokens. This enables more secure and modern authentication for integrations and automation.
-
New REST API Endpoints for Daily Worklog Summaries: We’ve added new REST API endpoints to return summarized worklogs per user per day. This simplifies building external reports and analytics on top of ActivityTimeline data.
GET /rest/api/1/worklogs?auth-token=YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN (since v12.9.0)
GET /rest/api/1/worklogs/$username?auth-token=YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN (since v12.9.0)
-
Improved user search by Skill/Position for Power Team Lead user role.
-
Added new "Half a Year – Weekly Scroll" mode to Scrollable Periods on the Planner.
-
Improved performance of Timeline Timesheets that are grouped by Epic.
-
Other improvements and fixes.
In addition, Jira 11.0.0 - 11.3.0 support is available in the app version ending with “-jira11” suffix.
If you are running Jira DC on the Microsoft SQL Server database with Windows Authentication then you would need to update the corresponding driver library to 12.10.2 (mssql-jdbc_auth-12.10.2.x64.dll)
