How to display Epic from Project A also in Project B

[Elmedin Medija]

Dear community,

We'd like to display the epic from project A also in project B. We can assign user stories to an epic from project A, but the epic is only displayed as a label. This is already good, but we'd like to see the epic in the "epic column". It should be dynamic. The epic from project A should appear in the "epic column" of Project B If a task from Project B is assigned to an epic from Project A.

Someone an idea how we can make this happen?

@Elmedin Medija, 

To pull in all Epics of project A you would need to extend your filter with current JQL + or (project = A and issuetype = Epic ).

If you only want to include Epics from A that have children from B, you'd likely need to invest in an app. I believe the Enhanced Search plugin would allow you to do this using the parentsOf function.
