Filters Activity Stream is a dashboard gadget that shows a list of the most recently changed content within your JIRA site. Compared to the standard Activity Stream, Filters Activity Stream allows to configure a basic or JQL filter. This feature enables many business needs to be met like browsing worklogs activities, retrieve issues with specifics components, sprints or versions and much more. A minimum filter to which you have access or registered ownership on your instance is required.
The filter must be visible to other users in case of a shared dashboard
It is recommended to set a filter display limit of 100 issues to match the cloud architecture and improve performance
