Configurations → 3d Party Integration → Imported Calendars Administration.
  • Improved Timesheet Export for Rich Text Fields: Timesheet exports to Excel now include values from Rich Text custom fields, providing more complete and accurate reporting.

  • Added a new “Types to import” setting to Google Calendar integration: You can now choose which event types should be imported, giving you more flexibility and control over synced calendar data.

  • Extended Worklog Backdate Options: Two additional options have been added to the worklog backdate limit in Timesheet configuration. Administrators can now choose 45-day and 75-day limits, providing more flexibility for organizations with different reporting or accounting cycles.

  • Workspace Assignee Filter Persistence: The Assignee filter is now preserved when saving the Workspace view as a Dashboard. This ensures that dashboards retain the selected assignee context and display consistent data when reopened.

  • Improved Access to “What’s New”: A new “What’s New” quick access link has been added to the Support menu to help users easily discover recent updates and improvements.

  • Extended Historical Range for Timesheet Generation: The previous two-year historical limit for generating Timesheets has been removed. Users can now generate reports for periods further in the past. To maintain performance, the maximum selectable range for a single report remains two years at a time.

  • Added support for External Custom Field Type. Organizations using external data synchronization or marketplace apps relying on this field type can now seamlessly incorporate this data into planning and reporting workflows.

  • Added Support for Jira Space Category (Former Project Category): You can now use Jira Project Categories (also known as Space Categories) across ActivityTimeline for better organization and filtering.

  • Introduced a limit of up to 3 concurrent timesheet generation requests to improve system stability and prevent performance issues caused by multiple simultaneous requests.

  • Implemented concurrent request limit per API token (max 3 active requests per REST API token).

  • Enhanced user management by allowing synchronization of users from specific Jira groups, giving admins finer control over which users appear in ActivityTimeline. Users outside the selected groups will be automatically removed from ActivityTimeline.

  • Store Current Period for Planner Dashboards: You can now save a Planner dashboard with the currently selected time period. This allows dashboards to open directly in future periods, such as next quarter or next year, without manual adjustment.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.
