Hello All,

I want to have a view under Backlog tab wherein for a specific sprint, I see issues grouped by Labels. I have created several labels that are being attached to a particular issue type. Hence, , I would like to know how many issues of particular category(Labels) are being planned in each sprint. Is this possible

Thanks in advance,

Manikanta

Hello mani@123

Thank you for reaching out.

It is possible to order the issues in your board backlog to be grouped by Labels, but not only for a specific Sprint. These would be the options you have:

1 - Order your board filter by labels:

- Navigate to your board > board settings > General > Edit Filter Query

- Add the following parameter to the end of your query and save it:

order by labels

Performing the steps above, all the issues in your backlog will be displayed grouped by labels in alphabetical order. E.g: if you have the labels "ABC" and "XYZ" configured in your issues, the issues with the label "ABC" will appear in the top of the backlog, while the ones with "XYZ" will appear at the bottom.

2 - Configure quick filters to display only the issues with the labels you want:

- Navigate to your board > Board settings > Quick Filters

- Configure a quick filter for each label you have:

labels = ABC

Doing it, you could have your board a fast way to display only the issues with a specific label and switch back to the board default.

let me know if this information helps.
