Board Filter Doesn't Detect Projects

Payam Moghaddam November 19, 2018

I want to have my Kanban board detect the projects associated to the board, so my "Epic" panel works properly. However, at the moment, it cannot detect the projects from the given query:

 

```

assignee in (bob_smith, laura_stuart, phil_bil) OR project = "Development" ORDER BY Rank ASC

```

 

Am I missing something? I am hoping our Epic Panel works properly and shows only our project's Epics, but that's not the case. We see everything instead.

 

Thanks,

Hi  @Payam Moghaddam,

I don't think you should use Or here, you can try And.

assignee in (bob_smith, laura_stuart, phil_bil) And project = "Development" ORDER BY Rank ASC

Sometimes team members are assigned issues outside of their immediate project, and we'd like to see that on the board. That's why we use an OR. 

However it feels like OR messes up the recognition :/
Thank you for the quick reply!

If you're only expecting to see epics, should you not add 

AND issuetype=Epic

to the filter?

It's more to allow the "Epics Panel" to show only the "Development" project Epics. I still want to see all the stories.

Thanks for the reply! :)

I'm finding it difficult to understand your projects and what you're trying to get.

To get only the epics from the Development project would be

project="Development AND issuetype=Epic

Adding in the assignees bit, possibly try

(project="Development OR assignee in (bob_smith, laura_stuart, phil_bil)) AND issuetype=Epic)

This will give all epics from the Development project and all epics assigned to those people, regardless of project.

I hope this is what you're after

For the filter I shared, inside "Kanban Board Settings", for the section "Projects in Board", I get:

Even though I've clearly put a project in the query, it cannot understand the project. This then seems to have other issues. For example the Kanban's board "Epic Panel" doesn't show my project's Epics only. It shows every Epic.
