What is the summary view?

The summary view helps you monitor the progress of your project by giving you a high-level overview of your team’s work. It includes a snapshot summary of your project’s status, priorities, workload distribution across team members, and progress across your team’s epics.

Enable the project summary

The summary view is enabled by default in all projects. To view your project summary (assuming it’s enabled), navigate to your project, then select Summary.

To disable the summary:

1. Start in your Jira software project.

2. Select Project settings, then select Features.

3. Select the toggle to the right of Summary.

You can re-enable the summary at any time from Project settings.

1. Overview cards

These four sections provide an overview of recent activity within the project by displaying the number of issues that have been completed, updated, and created in the last seven days, as well as the number of items due in the next seven days.

2. Status overview

Here’s where you can view your project’s overall progress on issues, based on the statuses in your workflow. Only items that have been completed in the last two weeks will appear in Done. If you don’t have any issues in your project, you’ll need to create some to get the most value out of this section. Read more about working with issue workflows
