Query at board level rather than project level

[Uday]

Hi Everyone,

I have two boards for a project, one of them is a Scrum board and another is a Kanban board.  The first Scrum board is used to tract development & QA activities.  The second board is to track UAT & Production implementation. 

As of now in the second board, all the issues are getting displayed.  Temporarily I altered the query to display only the status that belong to second board.  is it the only way or do we have a way to filter at board level rather than project level  (like "Board - XXX" instead of "project = XXX")

Thanks in advance.

Hi Uday and Welcome,

What criteria is used to determine if an issue is related to UAT & Producction Implementation? Their issue type? Their status? Maybe a component? or a CustomField?

That's the trick to create a JQL to retrieve only data that meet the defined criteria in the second board and get rid of unnecesary issues.

There is no way to query the boardName itself or something related to the board where the query is used.

Kind Regards

Hi Jack,

Thanks for the response.  The differentiation is by status and as suggested by you currently I have altered the query by selecting the status that corresponds to second board. 

Thank you.

You've already taken the correct approach without help :)

Don't hesitate to ask for support in future situations if you encountered any problem while using any Atlassian tools

Have a nice day

Hi @Uday ,

The approach @Jack Nolddor _Sweet Bananas_ recommended is correct; I also use separate filter queries when creating boards to pull issues with distinguishing criteria differently.  

There may be another way to filter out the issues if you prefer to maintain only one filter. If you go into the Board settings for your Kanban board there is a section for Quick Filters that uses JQL. You can add JQL for "Status in (xxx, yyy, zzz)."  This will add a button to the board that applies the filter when clicked. 

Here is a link for more information:
