Each of the five series can be shown or hidden: Ideal Burndown, Ideal Burnup, Remaining, Burned, and Scope. All are on by default. With Remaining Time Estimate, only Ideal Burndown and Remaining are available.

CombinationReads As
Remaining + Ideal BurndownThe classic burndown. Cleanest for a daily standup
Burned + Ideal BurnupA burnup view. Better for stakeholders who prefer progress rising
Remaining + ScopeDiagnoses scope creep. The best pairing for a retrospective

Data Table View

The table lists every work item in the sprint: key, summary, type, assignee, status, a completion note, and its estimate, with a total. Use it when someone questions a number, and to copy figures into a sprint report.

Export

FormatContains
PNGThe chart as displayed, named after the sprint (Chart view only)

Both exports can be disabled independently if you want the chart visible but not extractable.

Common Use Cases

Daily standup. Remaining plus Ideal Burndown, auto-latest sprint, auto-refresh on. It stays correct across sprints with no editing.

Sprint review. Turn on the Scope series. If scope stepped up mid-sprint, lead with that.

Retrospective. Open the data table and look at the work items marked as not completed - they usually point to the blocker.

Executive rollup. Use Burned plus Ideal Burnup - a rising line reads as progress to an audience that does not live in Jira.
