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:

• Added support for default worklog categories per project:

  You can now set a default worklog category for each project, making it easier for users to select the correct category when logging work. The default category will be pre-filled to save time, but users can still change it if needed.

• Introduced Log Time on Google Calendar Events: You can now easily log time directly from your Google Calendar events. Simply click on an event, select ‘Log to Jira’, and create a worklog in just a few steps. Click here to learn more.

• Enhanced Leave Report: Added support for generating leave reports for individual users, giving you greater flexibility and visibility when tracking time off.

• Added a new configuration option to enable or disable approval for custom events: You can now control approval requirements for the following event types — BOOKING, DAY_OFF, PLACEHOLDER, and VACATION.

  Previously, approval was mandatory only for VACATION events and couldn’t be turned off. With this update, you have the flexibility to decide whether approval is needed for each event type, based on your team’s workflow.

• Added an approval filter to the Issue Panel, allowing for a quicker overview of bookings, placeholders, and vacations pending approval.

• Introduced visual indicator for users with “No Access” role: A “✖️” emoji is now displayed next to the names of users with the “No Access” role on ActivityTimeline administration pages.

• Added a hint on the Refresh Users page to guide admins through the process.

• Default User Group Update: ActivityTimeline now loads users by default from a new Jira group:

  jira-users-<INSTANCE_NAME>.

• Enhanced report accuracy and reliability.

• Improved system stability.
