Pull Requests Created

Activity Volume

Counts the number of pull requests you opened during the selected period.

💡 Think of each PR as a delivery box, you're packaging up your work for teammates to inspect and approve.

What It Measures

Counts the number of pull requests you opened during the selected period.

Why It Matters

Gauging how many changes you are preparing for review
Tracking your code contribution pace

How It's Calculated

Counts each pull request creation event in the date range.

COUNT(pr_creation_events WHERE timestamp BETWEEN measure_from AND measure_to)
Concrete Example

If you opened 8 pull requests in a two-week sprint, you averaged 4 per week, a healthy contribution pace.
