Hi Anonymous ,
Please refer to the steps to connect to Jira.
Prerequisites
- Get Power BI Desktop. You can download it for free.
- A Power BI Pro account.
- An Atlassian account that you can use to log in to JIRA.
Steps to Move Data from JIRA to Power BI
Step 1: Generate an API Token
Step 2: Download and Install the JIRA Content Pack
Step 3: Add the API Token to the Jira Power BI Content Pack
There are a few limitations of manually transferring data from Jira to Power BI.
- There is no documentation or support provided for this app.
- The connection has a 100 records limitation that occurs on the JIRA side since the JIRA content pack in Power BI Service relies on JIRA API.
- The app is prone to data-volume-related problems. Accessing a large JIRA dataset using a Power BI report based on this app will cause the app to fail.
- Dataset refresh takes a long time.
- It takes a long time to process data even if you don’t load all of the fields into your report
