Reporting Use Cases
The ID (Source) field provides the unique identifier for a comment as it appears in the source application (e.g., GitHub, Jira). Its primary role in reporting is to provide a direct reference link and ensure that each comment can be uniquely identified in detailed lists and drilldowns.
Context in Reports: In any detailed report or drilldown that lists individual comments, including the
ID (Source)as a dimension, is useful for providing a unique reference. This is especially helpful when multiple comments have similar timestamps or authors.Filtering for Specific Comments: While a less common use case, if you know the exact ID of a specific comment you need to investigate, you can use a direct filter to isolate it.
For example, you could create a report with a filter like
ID (Source) = "12345678"to pull up the details of a single, specific comment.
