How to create "child issues" under initiative?

[ardian.krivca]

I created an initiative but how do I create child issues (epics) within it? 

I am able to create an EPIC and then have it "relate" back to the parent but I prefer to have child issues inside my initiative.

Hello @ardian.krivca 

Are you working with a Standard or Premium subscription for Jira Cloud? Are you work with Basic Roadmaps (native to Standard subscription) or Advanced Roadmaps (native to Premium subscription)?

to be honest I am not sure to both questions.  I am not an admin, is there a way I can check?

When viewing an agile board for the project do you see a Roadmap option in the navigation pane on the left?

What steps did you take to create the Initiative issue?

I see roadmap, when I click on it, it says im being blocked by a jql filter.

I click create at the top then I get the popup menu. I then select "initiative".

Can you provide a screen image of the error? I've not seen that before.

actually I figured it out, I didnt realize there is a field for parent down below, not sure who I missed that. 

thank you for your help
