Sub-tasks not appearing on Kanban Board)

[Naveen Narula]

Hi Guys,

I am using server based Jira.

is there any solution for Sub-tasks not appearing on Kanban Board when I use any filter? 

Sub-Task are appearing in the Kanban board if I don't use any filter query but when I use any filter query like "Epic Link" or others then it does not show sub tasks.

Hi,
With standard JQL, you can only get a list of of epic's children if you know the epic key:

parentEpic=MYEPIC-1

As a next step, you can use our app to find the child issues based on criteria of the epic:

issue in childrenOfIssuesInQueryRecursive("project='ACME' and type=Epic and Team='Team 2'")

Check out the documentation if you want to know more.
I hope this helps!

Hi  @Naveen Narula and welcome.

Epic Link field is not applicable to sub-tasks Therefore if you quick filter with an epic link, you will get not a single subtask as a result. What are these other filters you are trying to use?

Hi Alex

I have four epics in my project, each epic has tasks and each task has few sub tasks.

I would like to create a kanban board for each epic separately.

When I create Kanban board for epic A and I filter using epic link A it just shows the tasks linked to it not the sub tasks linked to the tasks.

But when I create kanban board for the whole project without any filter it show all the tasks and subtasks linked to the tasks.

I am wondering is there a way that can show tasks and subtasks for an Epic Kanban.

I hope i am making sense here.

Thanks

As I said in my initial comment Epic Link is not inherited to subtasks. Epic link exists only in the parent-child relationship when the parent is the epic.

You can use however the JQL below to get the results you want

parentEpic = EPIC_KEY

Hi Alex

ParentEpic is not a function() for me.

I tried earlier but it is not like a function in Jira version I am using. 😆

Is there any other JQL query that I can use to show epic's tasks and task's subtasks on Kanban board?

Thanks

Well, what version of Jira are you using?

Hi Alex

I found the solution 

Its issue in childIssuesOf()

This worked for me.

Thank you again

Naveen - try clearing Kanban board sub-filter from your Kanban board configurations and then recheck.
