The Scenario
You're the QA lead. Release is Thursday. Thirty issue numbers were filed last sprint — your product manager dropped them in Slack this morning with a message that just said "can you check these before the retro?" You need title, assignee, status, and priority for all thirty, compiled into the release readiness sheet you've been using all quarter.
The bad version is not subtle:
The bad version:
- Open Leiga, search issue number one, copy the title and assignee into your sheet, note the status and priority.
- Do this thirty times, keeping the issue list and the sheet open in alternating windows, hoping you don't lose your place.
- Finish, then realize that four issues changed status while you were working through the list, so the data is already partially stale.
Thirty issues at even two minutes each is an hour of your morning. The retro starts at 2 PM and you haven't started the actual review yet.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Google Sheet. It reads your issue number column, fetches each issue from Leiga through its built-in integration, and writes the results back without requiring you to open a single issue detail page.
For each issue number in Column A, fetch the Leiga issue details and write the title, status, assignee, and priority into columns B–E
What You Get
- Column B: issue title as it appears in Leiga
- Column C: current status (Open, In Progress, Closed, etc.)
- Column D: assignee name
- Column E: priority level
- Any issue number that returns no result gets a clear flag in the relevant row so you can investigate before the retro
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
You want to flag any issues that are still open directly in the sheet
For each issue number in Column A, fetch the Leiga issue details and write title, status, assignee, and priority into columns B–E — then write 'OPEN' in Column F for any issue where status is not 'Closed'
Some issue numbers in Column A have extra formatting or aren't valid
Process each row in Column A where the value looks like a valid Leiga issue number — fetch title, status, assignee, and priority into columns B–E, and write 'Skipped — invalid format' for any rows that don't match
You need to sort the results by priority before the retro
Fetch Leiga issue details for each number in Column A — title, status, assignee, priority — write into columns B–E, then sort all rows by Column E priority descending so Critical issues appear first
Run the full release readiness pass in one prompt
For each issue number in Column A, fetch the Leiga issue title, status, assignee, and priority into columns B–E. Flag 'OPEN' in Column F for any status that is not 'Closed'. Then count the total OPEN issues and write that count into cell H1 with the label 'Open Issues:'
SheetXAI handles the fetch, the conditional flag, and the summary count in a single pass.
