Worklogs Report alternatives for Jira Cloud, before Connect support ends

Checked on 7 October 2026 against the Marketplace listings and Atlassian’s documentation.

Logline is our app. It is option 4 here: asking the vendor and Jira’s own search come first, and what Worklogs Report does that Logline does not is at the end. Facts checked 7 October 2026.

Worklogs Report, by Colined, is a worklog report and timesheet for Jira Cloud built on Atlassian Connect. Its latest Cloud version, 1.2.24, was released on 26 April 2025 (its Marketplace listing). Atlassian ends support for Connect on 31 January 2027, and Jira admins see a warning beside Connect apps on the Connected apps page; Connect end of support: what to do about your Jira worklog report has the dates and what the warning means. If your team’s timesheets come from Worklogs Report, here are the options, cheapest first.

Which option fits

  • Stay, if it is moving: ask the vendor (option 1).
  • One person’s hours for a month, now and then: Jira’s own search (free, option 2).
  • Timers, approvals or locked periods as well: a time-tracking suite (option 3).
  • The same reports, built on Forge, read-only: Logline (option 4).
  • Your people log time in Tempo Timesheets: not Logline (see the last section).

1. Ask the vendor

Atlassian’s advice for any Connect app is to contact the vendor through the app’s Marketplace listing. If Colined announces a Forge version with a date before 31 January 2027, staying may be the least work. Two places to look:

  • The note beside the app on Connected apps in Atlassian Administration: a yellow warning means the vendor has said it will not move, or has not said; a blue note means it has said it will.
  • The listing’s version history, for a release built on Forge.

2. Jira’s own search (free)

JQL finds the issues with time logged in a period (worklogDate, worklogAuthor), but the Time Spent beside each one is its all-time total, not the period’s, and Jira has no report of hours per person per period (JRACLOUD-97253). For an occasional figure that can be enough; for a monthly timesheet it means a spreadsheet every month. Jira worklog report by user and month walks through it.

3. A time-tracking suite

If you also want timers, approvals or locked timesheet periods, a time-tracking app does reports too, usually at a higher price per user. It is a bigger change: people log time in a new way.

4. Logline (ours)

Logline is a worklog report and timesheet built on Forge. It reads Jira’s own worklogs as the person viewing, with read-only permissions, so nobody sees a worklog Jira hides from them, and nothing leaves your Atlassian site. Each view of a Connect worklog report has a place in it (Coming from a Connect worklog report lists them):

  • Timesheet grouped by a field: Rows, up to two levels.
  • Daily, weekly or monthly split: Columns.
  • Fixed and rolling date ranges: Period.
  • Worklogs as rows, with comments: the Worklogs view.
  • Work ratio column: Extra columns, and Overspend.
  • Grouping by Jira group: People, Jira groups, then Rows, Jira group.
  • Saved reports, public or restricted: Save, then Share.
  • Excel export: Download Excel or CSV.

There is no importer: rebuild each saved report once, and run both apps side by side while you compare the totals of a closed month. Logline adds billable hours with their amount, hours against expected hours, and gaps on working days with no time logged.

Two differences a security review will ask about:

  • Permissions. Logline asks to read Jira and keep its own settings, nothing more. The Marketplace’s record of Worklogs Report’s current version lists Connect’s Read, Write and Delete permissions and both of its administration permissions, up to Full Administration.
  • Where the app runs. Logline runs on Atlassian’s Forge platform with no server of its own. A Connect app runs on its vendor’s servers.

Logline is free for sites with up to 10 Jira users; Worklogs Report is paid from the first user. Above that, both are billed per user by Atlassian, and the Pricing tab of each listing gives the exact cost for your site.

What Worklogs Report does that Logline does not

  • Tempo Timesheets. Its listing says it “works both with default Jira time tracking and Tempo Timesheets”. Logline reads only Jira’s own worklogs, and time logged in Tempo reaches Jira under Tempo’s app account, so Logline shows those hours under Tempo, not the person (the question on our home page). If your people log time in Tempo, Logline is not the replacement.
  • A track record. Worklogs Report has 398 installs and 18 reviews averaging 4.4 stars, is in Atlassian’s Cloud Fortified programme and takes part in its bug bounty. Logline is new: it has none of these yet.
  • A demo with the vendor. Its listing offers a one-to-one demo.

What Logline does not do at all: timers, approvals or logging time. More on the Logline home page.
