Projects Health Checks

Optimizer will perform a number of health checks on the Projects in your Jira site to help you identify:

  • Small or empty projects

  • Inactive projects

  • Projects with inactive leads

Available Health Checks for Projects

Small or empty projects

The ‘Small or empty projects’ health check finds projects with very few or no issues. By default, this includes projects with up to 10 issues, but you can set this value to any (non-negative) number of issues, as shown in the image below. For example, if you want to find only empty projects then you can set the value to 0.

Choose the maximum number of issues in a project to be determined as ‘small’

Inactive projects

The ‘Inactive projects’ health check scans for projects where no issue has been updated recently. By default, this includes projects where no issue has been updated in 180 days or more, but you can set this value to any number of days, months, or years, as shown in the image below.

Select the last updated issue timeframe

Projects with inactive leads

The ‘Projects with inactive leads’ health check finds projects where the project lead is no longer active on Jira.

Viewing and actioning results

The ‘Results’ link for each of the Health Checks in the Projects category takes you to a smart table showing the list of projects in your instance that were identified by the check.

From the smart tables, you can take actions such as bulk archiving inactive projects and updating Project Leads.
