Why are epics from one project appearing in a separate project?

I've created a separate company-managed project, with separate workflows and issue types. When I add Epics to the Roadmap, they are appearing in the backlog of a different project used by another team? How do I make it such that the epics are only associated with my project?

Hi Emma - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

It depends on the filter used by the board in the other project. Take a look at the filter to see if it is including this project also.

Probably this!

Thanks! Yep I figured out the issue was a filter where the JQL was backwards - it kept bringing in tickets from another project because the "project = x" last, and once the project owner put this JQL parameter first, it solved the problem!

Great!
