I have created swimlane queries to display issues in active sprint by priority(p1, p2, p3). Now i need under each priority I want the issues to be displayed grouped by Assignee. is it possible to do that ?

Hello @Mathan Babu Thangamalai 

You can use quick filters to show by the user.

Quick filters again I have to select assignee by assignee right....i don't want that. With Swimlane queries grouped by Priority...i see an expand collapse toggle....inside that I need to see another expand / collapse toggle for assignees

Hello @Mathan Babu Thangamalai  ,

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Jira doesn’t support multi-level grouping (e.g., Priority → Assignee) directly in the board view.

1. You can use swimlanes by Priority and show Assignee on the card, or filter by Assignee using quick filters as suggested by @arielei .

Step -
Go to Board settings → Card layout

Add Assignee to the card layout

Create a Quick filter for assignee as - assignee = currentUser()

This will let you visually scan for Assignees within your Priority swimlanes

2. For more advanced grouping, dashboards or marketplace apps may help! Let me know your use case if you'd like a tailored workaround.

Step -

Use “Filter Results” gadget on a dashboard

Create a JQL filter like:

Eg JQL -
sprint in openSprints() AND project = XYZ ORDER BY priority, assignee

Use grouping or two gadgets (one per Priority) and display assignee under each
