Any way to view by Component in backlog instead of epic?

[leewarren]

For a given release, I often prefer to see how the various components are shaping up, which have multiple stories attached to each, rather than the epic. Is there a way to do this in the backlog view?

Hi @leewarren

One way you could do this is by introducing quick filters on the board and set them with the various components.

When you select a quick filter in the backlog, it will then show you only the components you want to see: https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/configure-quick-filters/

That's kind of a hack, because what I'd really like are my components shown rather than epics. Yet another JIRA 'fail'

@leewarren 

I hear you. You may want to create a feature request and see if gathers enough interest to have it implemented.

Thanks for the suggestion!

@leewarren Did you create a feature request? I would like this feature as well

[leewarren]

I don't know how. If you do, could you add it?

[isak.wiberg]

I don't know either. @Fabian Lim Can you point us to where we can create feature requests?

Maybe this is the right place
