Can you show an Epic/Task parent relationship in Board View?

Using the Email Campaign Template

Hi Lisa,

If you are creating a Company-managed Jira Work Management/Business project, then you can have the cards display the Epic on the card. It's not a true relationship, but you can at least see the Epic the card is under.

Hey John, 

I'm actually trying to achieve this. I see the "Epic link" in the right submenu but nothing happens if I activate it. I was wondering whether the update of epic link/parent link recently may have had an impact. 

So my question is: "is it still working for you ?"

Hello @Lisa Robinson 

The Email Campaign project template is one of the templates available for Business/Work Management types of projects.

For those projects it is not currently possible to show Epic/child issue relationships in the Board or Timeline views.

This change request relates to that need:
