JIRA provides a Summary of each component of a project, which shows recent activity in the component, plus a list of issues that are due soon.

To browse a component's summary,

  1. On the top navigation bar, click the white triangle next to 'Projects'. The projects dropdown will display.
    (tick) Tip: You can access your current project directly by simply clicking the 'Projects' link instead of the triangle.
  2. Click the project that you wish to browse. If it is not displayed in the dropdown, click 'View All Projects' — you will be able to view a list of all projects set up in your JIRA instance and select your project from there.
  3. Click the 'Components' tab on the left of the page. Click the name of the component in which you are interested.
  4. Click the 'Summary' tab. The summary for your component will display (see screenshot below).
    • Click the icon in the 'Issues: Due' section to go through to the Issue Navigator and see the full list of due issues.
    • Click the icon in the 'Issues: Updated recently' section to go through to the Issue Navigator and see the full list of issues updated recently.
    • Click the icon in the 'Versions: Due' section to view the versions in the project.
