Project missing from Project dropdown in filters

[Carly Mojica]

I have two project with a similar name: Vision and Vision Scrum. Both are company-managed projects.

These projects should not be associated or tied together in any way. I did not select to create one as a child of the other. Vision Scrum was created as a brand new project. When I view the Vision Scrum board, I do not see the Vision project listed as a parent in the breadcrumbs.

However, the Vision Scrum project is not showing in the dropdown as a project when creating filters. (Note: the gray box is where I've obscured sensitive info.) I can only see the Vision project. When the filter is applied, it includes information from Vision Scrum. 

Can anyone think of where I might have associated these two projects and how to disconnect them? I want to archive the Vision board, but am concerned this will cause issues since they seem to be connected somehow.

Hello @Carly Mojica 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

You may notice that not every project is displayed immediately in that dropdown. Have you tried typing Vision into the pull down field to filter the list of suggested projects?

omggggg. Well I feel silly! That did work. Thanks for your help! I will say that's not an easily-discoverable design pattern for new users.

You are not the first to be tripped up by that design pattern. ;-)
