What’s New in ActivityTimeline Cloud

Stay ahead with the latest updates to cloud version. Explore new features, improvements, and fixes that enhance functionality and streamline your experience.

Key Highlights:

• Dynamic Report Grouping: Added a new Group by dropdown in the Customize Report panel.

  Users can now switch grouping on the fly without navigating back and forth between configuration and the report view. This significantly speeds up comparison scenarios and ad-hoc report adjustments.

• Story Points Support in Project Progress Report: The Project Progress Report now supports Story-points–based calculations. Progress for Projects, Epics, and JQL-based scopes is calculated by completed Story Points, offering more accurate metrics for teams that estimate in Story Points.

• Past Worklog Limit (Backdate Restriction): We introduced a new Past Worklog Limit setting that restricts Jira worklogging to N days in the past. Admins can now enforce backdate logging policies directly within ActivityTimeline.

• Issue Split View Inside Jira (Cloud): A new Issue Split tab is now visible on native Jira issue screens under Activity. Users can see how an issue was split and which part is scheduled for which date—directly inside Jira, without switching to ActivityTimeline.

• Status Icons for Worklog Approvals (Compact Mode): Detailed Timesheets now support a Status Icon column for approval statuses. This helps save horizontal space and improves readability, especially in compact layouts.

• Enhanced Workspace Issue Panel + Global Search Option: The Workspace Issue Panel now includes an Assignee filter, bringing it to feature parity with the Planner Issue Panel. Users can view all tasks they have access to in ActivityTimeline, not just their own.

Additionally, we introduced an optional custom functionality that when enabled, the Workspace search bar will search across all accessible issues, not only the current user’s. If you would like to enable it, contact us at support@reliex.com and we’ll provide instructions for enabling the feature.

• Support for Focus Events in Google Calendar Sync: ActivityTimeline now supports synchronization of the Focus event type from Google Calendar. This option is currently disabled by default. If your team uses Focus events, contact us at support@reliex.com and we’ll provide instructions for enabling the feature.

• Default Custom Field Values in Create Issue Dialog: The ActivityTimeline Create Issue Dialog now respects default values set for Jira custom fields, ensuring smoother and more consistent issue creation.

• Added a new Export to CSV option on the Users page in the Configuration section of ActivityTimeline — designed to help administrators and managers easily extract and analyze user data outside the app.

• Introduced Quick Worklog Synchronization, allowing users to trigger worklog syncs from a specific date using a built-in date/time picker. This update gives admins more control over sync operations and helps streamline data updates.

• Introduced Configurable Time Spent Display in Days or Hours: You can now choose whether your timesheets and worklogs display time in days instead of hours. This new flexibility helps teams who plan and report work in days to keep their data consistent across planning, tracking, and reporting views.

• Added grouping options to Team Capacity Chart: You can now group the Team Capacity Chart by Issue, Epic, or any custom field, giving you more control over how you analyze and visualize team workload across different hierarchy levels.

• Introduced Quick Issue Synchronization, allowing users to trigger issue syncs from a specific date using a built-in date/time picker. This update gives admins more control over sync operations and helps streamline data updates.

• API Update – Worklog Attributes Response: Starting from v12.3.0 to improve performance and reduce payload size, worklog attributes are no longer returned by default in the worklog API response. If you want to retrieve worklog attributes, use the following parameter in your API call:

• Calendar Event Status Visualization: Implemented a visual cue by updating the background color of Calendar Events to grey upon successful worklog submission. This enhancement improves tracking efficiency and prevents redundant log entries.

• Added support of Tempo Cloud Account custom field in Issue Bar, Issue Card, Timesheets, Reports (Cloud only).

• Enhanced report accuracy and reliability.

• Improved system stability.
