Swimlane tab is not shown after deleting default swimlane

[Alvaro Frias]

Hello, I have a team-managed project. 

I have a scrum board, which had the default swimlanes: 

Expedite : based on the following JQL query: priority = Blocker

Everything else.

The thing is that I removed these swim lanes a while ago as I was not using them, and now I want to create another one, but the swim lane tab is not displayed anymore. 

Any idea?

 thanks,

Hi @Alvaro Frias -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Are you certain you have a team-managed project?  Perhaps post an image to confirm the type.

My understanding is team-managed projects only have a limited ability to group work items and do not have custom filter / JQL query-based swim lanes yet.  Here is the suggestion to add that feature: 

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-85691

Kind regards,
Bill

Hello, yes, im in a team-managed project. I see that the scrum board im using (the main one for the team) based on the JIRA project does not display the swim lane tab. 

I created another Board, in the same project but based on a JQL filter, and it DOES display this tab, and you can configure it.

I will use this second Board I just created.

thanks @Varsha Joshi  and @Bill Sheboy ,

Really appreciate your help,

Álvaro.

Hi @Alvaro Frias 

Welcome to the community!

Did you check under Layout-->Swimlanes upon clicking configure board from the project settings.

You need to pick another option other than - None. The swim lanes will show up with this change.
