Determine the Appropriate JQL Query
With Color and Workflow Map setup complete, the final step to access your Flow Metrics is to input and run a JQL query that encompasses all the work you intend to measure.

The range of possibilities for your query is extensive. However, for a first run, it is advisable to begin with a simple query. Ultimately, our goal is to provide products to our customers.

You are now in a position to refine your query and repeat its execution if necessary. You can also adjust your Workflow Map or create new Workflow Maps for other projects or products being developed within your organisation.
Note on Issue Color Coding
This step is optional but recommended. Many graphs in Delivery Flow display data at an Issue Type level. By default, each Issue Type is randomly assigned one of 18 colours from Atlassian’s chart visualisation palette. Assigning colours to different issue types aids in identifying them and promotes consistency throughout your organisation, as these settings are system-wide. Therefore, you should consider your options and make your adjustments. For example, we always like to assign red to defect issue types and green to feature issue types.
