Is it possible to have Epics from Different Projects in the same fix version release

[sadair]

Hi , We're starting to use releases. We have 2 different projects in Jira, but want to associate an Epic from 1 project with a release in another one. Is that possible

Hello @sadair 

Releases are project-specific so it is not possible to have issues from different projects in the same release.

Hi @sadair,

Releases (versions) are defined in each project, and you can only assign an epic to a release (version) from the project the epic belongs to.

But what you can do is to define the same release in both projects (like "Version 1.0") and set your epics/issues "Fix version" to it.

Then, use JQL filters by release name such as Fix Version = "Version 1.0". This will return the issues from both projects that have "Version 1.0".
