Filter Epic List - Do not show Closed Epics?

[Sharon Park]

I want to know if there is a way to stop displaying closed/done Epics in the Epic "picker" when I am creating a new JIRA ticket? We are having instances where people are picking old Epics that we do not use any longer.

I have confirmed that the closed Epics:

• The Status = Done
• The Resolution = Done
• The Resolved Date is present
• Do not show in the Epic Pane in the backlog
• Do not show in the Timeline view

I have asked 'Rovo' who replied that there is no way to do this, but not sure I trust that answer.  This seems like a straightforward feature that would be beneficial to most users.

Hi Sharon, 

Thanks for posting to Community!  This functionality to restrict completed Epics from the breadcrumb menu like you are are showing was requested under JRACLOUD-82800 , but due to lack of interest in the feature the request was closed.  

If this is functionality you are interested to have explored again I would be happy to create a new feature request on your behalf for this or you could create one yourself if you would prefer that route.  

The Parent Link field has the ability to filter completed Epics, but the breadcrumb menu as depicted within your screenshot does not at this time.  

Best, 

Andy
