The data sets are indeed a bit different. The reason is that in the
regular report (not the micro one) we have a label which indicates the
quality of planning - this is live information (not from the data
warehouse) and in order to get it we need to treat the report parameters
a bit differently (the team area parameter, for example, is a UUID
rather than a string name). So there are some other related differences
between the reports but they should all be related to this difference.
The data presented in the graph should be same.

Hope this helps.

Where do you see Micro Burndown?
If you are displaying it from the Report Templates folder in the Team Artifact Navigator, then this is the answer to your question:
The Burndown report is the one that is used by the reports UI.
The Micro Burndown is the one used by the dashboard UI. I recommend you use reports from the Shared Reports folder. The Reports Template folder is used mainly for the deployment of new reports to the system.


Thanks for your support.
