Estimate Gaps for Jira

Setup and use guide

Learn the Estimate Gaps repair workflow before installation opens. Results are limited to the hierarchy Jira returns to the person using the panel.

  • Atlassian app
  • In development status

01

Open a parent issue

Open the Jira issue that you want to check, then open Estimate Gaps in the issue details area. The panel reads from that issue as the root of the visible hierarchy.

02

Review visible results

A completed result lists only items Jira returns through every visible parent link. An Original Estimate of zero is estimated, not a gap.

The panel can show visible estimated and missing counts, plus a rounded percentage, when Jira returns visible descendants. It does not promise every descendant or work hidden by access rules.

03

Edit the missing Original Estimate

Select a listed gap to open it in a new tab. Keep the parent issue open so you can return to the panel.

  1. Edit Original Estimate in Jira using your normal Jira permissions.
  2. Save the Jira issue.
  3. Wait for Jira to index the change.
  4. Return to the parent issue and select Refresh.

04

Refresh after indexing

Refresh starts a new read and clears the previous result while it runs. When Jira returns the updated estimate, the repaired item no longer appears as a visible gap.

Jira indexing and your current access determine what the next completed result can show.

05

Incomplete and unavailable states

When the panel says “Estimate gaps are incomplete”, Jira could not provide a complete safe hierarchy within the app limits. The panel shows no rows or estimate-health summary.

When the panel says “Estimate gaps are unavailable”, the root or returned hierarchy could not be used safely, or the scan did not settle in time. The panel shows no rows or estimate-health summary.

06

Limits and access boundary

The scan accepts at most 2,000 visible descendants, 20 hierarchy levels, 100 Jira results per search page, and an 8-second scan deadline. The panel shows up to 100 safe gap rows.

The app reads Jira as the current viewer. It does not write Jira fields or save gap rows or hierarchy data.
