[RESOLVED] Kanban board with Epics only (w/o other issue types)

[Anita Domańska]

Hello All,

I'm trying to find solution to use Kanban board to display Epics only,

Epic represent project and project status represent phase. We want to see columns per project phase (status) and inside of them Epics.

Is that possible?

I didn't find solution when playing with board settings nor with

Just to mention my filter board is only with Epics. I can see them in the Backlog and Roadmap.  Only Kanban is blank.

Thanks in advance,

Anita

I resolved. Kanban board had some default Kanban board subquery in JQL. I removed that. Now it all showed up.

Also Swimlines were replaced by the Quaries with JQL that says Issuetype = Epic

Great - glad it is working for you now.

Do you have the Epics pane turned on for your board in the Board Settings > Columns page? If so, turn that off.

Do you have Swimlanes defined for your board? If so, ensure the Swimlanes option is not set to Epics.

[Anita Domańska]

yes, its off

Thanks for your help. I managed to resolve. works now (I wrote above solution).

Hi Anita,

I don't think I am completely following the need. But epics typically have different statuses associated with them than other issue types. So you need to map those Epic related statues from your workflow to the columns of your board. 

[Anita Domańska]

yes I did it

Epic workflow is different than other (child issues) and columns reflect Statuses of an Epic. Filter behind board doesn't display other issue types than EpPics. Board is empty. Epic pane is off.

Can you share a copy of your board filter?
