Browsing a Project's Summary
The Summary page for a project in JIRA shows recent activity in the project, plus a list of versions and issues that are due soon.
Browsing a project's summary
To browse a project's summary,
- On the top navigation bar, click the white triangle next to Projects. The projects dropdown will display.
Tip: You can access your current project directly by simply clicking the Projects link instead of the triangle.
- Click the project you wish to browse. If the project is not displayed in the dropdown, click View All Projects, which allows you to view a list of all accessible projects on your JIRA site, and select your project from there.
- Ensure that the 'Summary' tab page is displayed (see screenshot below). If not, click the Summary tab on the left to show this page.
