How can I set up my scrum board to display two projects?

[Jason Stewart]

I'm trying to set up one scrum board to display issues from two different projects at the same time. Does anyone know if this is possible and if so, how do I write the JQL query?

This is what I've tried to no avail. DS is one project and VRE is another that I'd like to appear in the same scrum board.

Hi @Jason Stewart 

Yes, it is possible. Boards display issue depending on board filter. 

But your JQL syntax is not right. Check this one:

• project in (DS,VRE) ORDER BY RANK ASC

What is IT in your query? Which field do you mean? 

Also check these useful docs:

• Use advanced search with Jira Query Language (JQL)
• Configure a company-managed board

IT is a queue bucket in the VRE project. I want to only pull in issues from the IT queue instead of all queues.

@Jason Stewart If you want to query from two different projects then just use the following JQL:

• Project in (DS,VRE) ORDER BY RANK ASC

However, if you want to query issues with queue=IT in VRE project together with all issues from DS project then use the following JQL:

• Project = DS OR (project = VRE AND queues = IT) ORDER BY RANK ASC

The first query you supplied, but the second one with the "queues = It" doesn't work. To add more context, IT is a queue in the VRE project. I only want to pull in issues in the IT queue.

I get the following error:

Field 'queues' does not exist or you do not have permission to view it.

@Jason Stewart "queue" is not a field in this case.

"IT" is a Jira Service Management queue. It's like a board in that it has a filter that determines what issues should fall into the queue. Click on the "IT" queue and go to the three dots in the top right > Edit Queue. Look at the filter used for the queue and base your JQL query on that. If you post a screenshot like this one we can help you further.

Try:

project in (DS,VRE) AND "queues" = IT ORDER BY Rank ASC
