Display info of a task while listing sub-tasks

[Anthony CUYKENS]

Hello,

I have a dashboard that list sub-tasks (that is what needs to be deployed). But I would like to see in this dashboard a property that is linked to the tasks that is, the group to which the task belong.

In normal SQL I would do a join to link add task info to sub-task and then display it would be easy but I think there is no way of making joins in Jira.

Any idea?

Thank you beforehand,
Anthony.

Hello @Anthony CUYKENS

The Jira dashboards displays issue fields inside gadgets, thus my suggestion to you is that when a sub-task is created then it should inherited this property from the parent task. Once the value is inherited then it's present in a field and thus it can be displayed easily right next to the sub-task.

Thank you very much for such a quick reaction @Tarun Sapra, but how do you specify that a sub-task needs to inherit from his parent's properties?

Hello @Anthony CUYKENS

There are apps available from marketplace which support such customization that when a sub-task is created then it inherits certain field from the parent. Please see the discussion here on this
