Estimation app on the toolbar
First, you will be asked to select cards, stickies, or Jira Cards for estimation. For this, drag the estimation area across the objects you want to estimate. Hit Estimate x cards once you’re ready to start estimation.
Estimation area
Everyone on the board will be able to join the estimation session. Estimations can be done asynchronously. All estimates are anonymous.
The pop-up to join the estimation session
Having clicked Join estimation, users will be redirected to the first card to add their estimates. When it’s done, they will be moved to the next one.
Estimation in progress
Once you go through every card and click I’m finished, you will be able to edit your estimates. The facilitator will be given the option to start agreeing the estimates with the team or end the session for all.
Estimation finished
As the facilitator hits Start agreeing, participants will see the team’s estimations of every card.
You can discuss the results synchronously (e.g., on a video call). The facilitator can lead the conversation and select final estimates. Once the discussion is finished, the facilitator clicks End for all.
Estimation agreement
If you estimate Miro cards or stickies, the estimates are saved as tags on the cards or stickies.
Tags show the estimations of the cards
If you estimate Jira Cards, the estimates are saved to Jira. Note that the facilitator should authorize with their Jira credentials prior to giving final estimates. The estimation results will be automatically synced with the corresponding Jira issues.
