Required Parameters

Name Type Since Description
basedir String 2.10 The current project base directory.
User property is: basedir.

Optional Parameters

Name Type Since Description
columnNames String 2.0 Sets the names of the columns that you want in the report. The columns will appear in the report in the same order as you specify them here. Multiple values can be separated by commas.

Valid columns are: Assignee, Component, Created, Fix Version, Id, Key, Priority, Reporter, Resolution, Status, Summary, Type, Updated and Version.


Default value is: Key,Summary,Status,Resolution,Assignee.
component String - Sets the component(s) that you want to limit your report to include. Multiple values can be separated by commas (such as 10011,10012). If this is set to empty - that means all components will be included.
filter String - Defines the filter parameters to restrict which issues are retrieved from JIRA. The filter parameter uses the same format of url parameters that is used in a JIRA search.
fixVersionIds String 2.0 Sets the fix version id(s) that you want to limit your report to include. These are JIRA's internal version ids, NOT the human readable display ones. Multiple fix versions can be separated by commas. If this is set to empty - that means all fix versions will be included.
forceRss boolean 2.9 Since JIRA 5.1.1, it is no longer possible to construct a URL that downloads RSS. Meanwhile JIRA added a REST API in 4.2. By default, this plugin uses the REST API if available. Setting this parameter to true forces it to attempt to use RSS.
Default value is: false.
jiraDatePattern String 2.4 The pattern used by dates in the JIRA XML-file. This is used to parse the Created and Updated fields.
Default value is: EEE, d MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss Z.
jiraPassword String - Defines the JIRA password for authentication into a private JIRA installation.
jiraUser String - Defines the JIRA username for authentication into a private JIRA installation.
maxEntries int - Maximum number of entries to be fetched from JIRA.
Default value is: 100.
onlyCurrentVersion boolean 2.0 If you only want to show issues for the current version in the report. The current version being used is ${project.version} minus any "-SNAPSHOT" suffix.
Default value is: false.
outputDirectory File - Report output directory. Note that this parameter is only relevant if the goal is run from the command line or from the default build lifecycle. If the goal is run indirectly as part of a site generation, the output directory configured in the Maven Site Plugin is used instead.
Default value is: ${project.reporting.outputDirectory}.
outputEncoding String 2.4 Report output encoding. Note that this parameter is only relevant if the goal is run from the command line or from the default build lifecycle. If the goal is run indirectly as part of a site generation, the output encoding configured in the Maven Site Plugin is used instead.
Default value is: ${project.reporting.outputEncoding}.
User property is: outputEncoding.
priorityIds String - Sets the priority(s) that you want to limit your report to include. Valid statuses are Blocker, Critical, Major, Minor and Trivial. Multiple values can be separated by commas. If this is set to empty - that means all priorities will be included.
resolutionIds String - Sets the resolution(s) that you want to fetch from JIRA. Valid resolutions are: Unresolved, Fixed, Won't Fix, Duplicate, Incomplete and Cannot Reproduce. Multiple values can be separated by commas.

Note: In versions 2.0-beta-3 and earlier this parameter had no default value.


Default value is: Fixed.
runOnlyAtExecutionRoot boolean 2.10 This will cause the execution to be run only at the top of a given module tree. That is, run in the project contained in the same folder where the mvn execution was launched.
Default value is: false.
User property is: changes.runOnlyAtExecutionRoot.
skip boolean 2.8 If set to true, then the JIRA report will not be generated.
Default value is: false.
User property is: changes.jira.skip.
sortColumnNames String 2.0 Sets the column names that you want to sort the report by. Add DESC following the column name to specify descending sequence. For example Fix Version DESC, Type sorts first by the Fix Version in descending order and then by Type in ascending order. By default sorting is done in ascending order, but is possible to specify ASC for consistency. The previous example would then become Fix Version DESC, Type ASC.

Valid columns are: Assignee, Component, Created, Fix Version, Id, Key, Priority, Reporter, Resolution, Status, Summary, Type, Updated and Version.

Note: If you are using JIRA 4 you need to put your sort column names in the reverse order. The handling of this changed between JIRA 3 and JIRA 4. The current default value is suitable for JIRA 3. This may change in the future, so please configure your sort column names in an order that works for your own JIRA version. If you use JQL, by setting the useJql parameter to true, then the order of the fields are in normal order again. Starting with JIRA 5.1 you have to use JQL.


Default value is: Priority DESC, Created DESC.
statusIds String - Sets the status(es) that you want to fetch from JIRA. Valid statuses are: Open, In Progress, Reopened, Resolved and Closed. Multiple values can be separated by commas.

If your installation of JIRA uses custom status IDs, you can reference them here by their numeric values. You can obtain them on the Statuses page (in 4.0.2 it's under Administration > Issue Settings > Statuses) - just hover over the Edit link for the status you want and you'll see something like <your JIRA URL>/secure/admin/EditStatus!default.jspa?id=12345; in this case the value is 12345.

Note: In versions 2.0-beta-3 and earlier this parameter had no default value.


Default value is: Closed.
typeIds String 2.0 Sets the types(s) that you want to limit your report to include. Valid types are: Bug, New Feature, Task, Improvement, Wish, Test and Sub-task. Multiple values can be separated by commas. If this is set to empty - that means all types will be included.
useJql boolean 2.8 Use the JIRA query language instead of the JIRA query based on HTTP parameters. From JIRA 5.1 and up only JQL is supported. JIRA 4.4 supports both JQL and URL parameter based queries. From 5.1.1 this is obsolete, since REST queries only use JQL.
Default value is: false.
User property is: changes.useJql.
versionPrefix String 2.4 The prefix used when naming versions in JIRA.

If you have a project in JIRA with several components that have different release cycles, it is an often used pattern to prefix the version with the name of the component, e.g. maven-filtering-1.0 etc. To fetch issues from JIRA for a release of the "maven-filtering" component you would need to set this parameter to "maven-filtering-".
webPassword String - Defines the http password for basic authentication into the JIRA webserver.
webUser String - Defines the http user for basic authentication into the JIRA webserver.
