Adds an option when creating sprint attainment or sprint velocity widgets based on Jira data to only show sprints that were directly created on the board you select.
Fixes an issue in ADO downloads
Date picker inputs are formatted as dates, and is no longer free text. You can highlight a portion of the date and use your up and down arrows to increment that part of the date, or you can quickly type and tab your way through specifying a more specific set of dates.
All source data tables can now be downloaded as a csv, giving you the full paginated list of all data so you can investigate further in your favorite spreadsheet tool. The new download csv button is in the top right of the source data table section on metrics.
Benefits:
The csv includes all the data regardless of how many pages.
If you've clicked on a series in the chart and filtered the source data that way, your downloaded csv will only show those items you filtered to. This lets you narrow the scope of the csv as desired.
Use the downloaded csv to sort and filter the full data set and potentially build some metrics yourself
Use the downloaded csv and the concatenate function in your favorite spreadsheet tool to get a list of IDs to take into jira or another source tool and pull up those specific cards, commits, prs, etc.
Limitations:
The columns included in the csv export are what you see in the app. You can't customize them to include additional columns.
Sorting columns in the app still only applies to the current page of data

Improvements for reporting on sprints:
In the Portfolio Report, sprints that are past their end date are always displayed in blue with a completed label, and they only show the percent of scope completed by their end date.
In the Milestone Report, when a completed sprint is selected, the amount of scope completed by the target is shown separately from the amount of scope that remains incomplete and the amount that may have been completed since the sprint ended.
In the Committed Vs Completed metric, the “complete” series is replaced by two series: “Complete” and “Complete after target”. This allows the user to distinguish between scope completed on time vs late for items such as sprints which have an end date.

Excludes tickets that were moved to a “Won’t Do” done state from your velocity so you can see exactly what your team shipped.
Narrows the Created vs. Completed metric down to bugs of a certain severity so you can see whether your team is creating more or fewer significant bugs over time.
Excludes subtasks from metrics to hone in on the increments of value to customers.
Update to the Velocity metric to give credit to all users who were assigned that ticket.
If developer Bettina and QA engineer Miguel were both assigned to a ticket, when that ticket is completed then both of Bettina and Miguel are credited with having done that work.
This change is visible in velocity metrics where the x axis or series is by contributor. In other velocity metrics, items worked on by multiple assignees will continue to show up as one unit in the chart.
Exclude issues that skip all work statuses in Cycle Time Metrics.
If an item jumps directly from To Do to Done then it is not counted in the cycle time average, as the item's cycle time would be zero and throw off averages.
