Work suggestions on the Development page
Work suggestions are context-aware, actionable recommendations designed to highlight work that requires your attention. These suggestions are tailored to the team’s software space in Jira and specifically identify actions you, as a team lead or manager, can take to help advance your team’s progress. Examples include reviewing issues due soon or addressing stuck pull requests—prioritized to help you and your team focus on the work that will have the biggest impact. By proactively surfacing stalled work and delivery blockers, work suggestions reduce context-switching and help your team deliver faster.
The Work suggestions tab within the Related work section on the Development page displays a list of work suggestions for your space.
This page describes the work suggestions available on the Development page in Jira.
Investigate blocking work item
This work suggestion appears when a work item is blocking one or more work items in the space. It helps unblock dependent work by prompting investigation or resolution of the blocker.
Review issue due soon
This work suggestion appears when a work item is due within the next 14 days and its status doesn’t fall within the 'Done' status category. It ensures critical deadlines aren’t missed by surfacing urgent work.
Add missing work item details
This work suggestion appears when a work item’s default description field is empty. It encourages teams to add all required context so work can proceed smoothly.
Review inactive pull request
This work suggestion appears when there’s no activity on an open pull request for more than five days. It accounts for pull requests linked to the space and those that may need review, merging, or closure to keep the codebase moving.
