Status count over time

I am trying to visualize Jira issues count over time by status.

Jira issues can be in three status category:

1. new / to do

2. In Progress

3. Done

I want to visualize it in such a way that it shows distinct count of jira issues over time like in line chart over time.

Sounds good. What have you tried and where are you stuck?

I have created a calculated column which contains the date at which the issue was moved to next status and for the current status it contains now() . I was trying to create a measure which will return distinct issues where selectedvalue of x axis i.e., a date is between those two columns which contains the date at which the issue entered a status category and at which it left. I'm not sure if it's a correct approach and measure was giving a straight horizontal line.

Measures can only return a scalar value.

what I mean is distinct count

ok, that is possible with a disconnected dates table.

 

By the way, here's a graphical representation of your sample data. Not very useful

There are also typos where the timestamps for new status entries don't match.
