## Overview

The Tableau Connector Pro for Jira app integrates with Tempo Timesheets to help you analyze the Tempo data in Tableau Desktop. The integration enables you to pull the Tempo Worklog Attributes, Account Information, and Worklog information from Tempo Timesheets. To set up integration, refer to [Tempo Timesheets](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ATCFJ/pages/1047953411).

You can export the following fields to analyze Tempo worklog data.

## Enhancements and updates on cloud

The Tableau Connector Pro for Jira app is enhanced to provide effective and accurate Tempo data. These enhancements apply to the cloud hosting of the app.

**Worklog fields**

- The Connector **Time Tracking (Worklogs)** field list now includes the Tempo field **Tempo: WorklogID**.
- The **Worklog ID** field has been renamed to **Jira Worklog ID** to distinguish it from the new Tempo field.

**Worklog timestamps**

- If Tempo is integrated, all Tempo worklogs are now retrieved from Tempo instead of Jira.
- The** worklog timestamp **is now displayed in the **Jira** **user's timezone**, as set in their Jira profile, for the following worklog fields: **Worklog Creation Date**, **Worklog Last Update Date**, and **Time Entry Date**.
- If the Jira user timezone visibility is set either to the organization’s name or only you, the **Jira** **Default user time zone** (global default timezone**)** will be used for the worklog timestamps.

> 📝 - To view and update Jira user’s timezone, navigate to **Manage Account** > **Account preferences**. [Learn more](https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/manage-your-jira-personal-settings/).

## Frequently Asked Questions

What has improved in the worklog timestamps on the cloud?

- Previously, the Tableau Connector Pro for Jira app retrieved the timestamp from Jira, applied the data format changes, and displayed it in the Etc/UTC format. Now, If Tempo is integrated, the worklog timestamps are retrieved directly from** **Tempo, ensuring greater accuracy and consistency.

> ℹ️ **Example scenario**:
> ℹ️ 
> ℹ️ - A Jira user’s account timezone preference is set to **US/Central** and is visible to **Anyone**. When the Jira user logs time through Tempo, the worklog fields are displayed in the **US/Central** timezone.

Why is Worklog ID renamed to Jira Worklog ID?

- With the addition of the **Tempo: WorklogID** field, the **Worklog ID **is renamed to **Jira Worklog ID** to ensure clear differentiation between Tempo and Jira worklog ID.

---

Is Tempo worklog data cached on the cloud?

- Yes, Tempo worklogs are cached with a **TTL (Time-to-Live) of 5 days **on the cloud. However, the app manages additions, deletions, and updates to worklogs, even though worklogs are cached to ensure data accuracy.
- If you need to **refresh or reset the cache**, go to the connector edit screen and select the **Do not use cache for next refresh** option. This resets all cached values of the connector, not just the worklogs.
