Big Gantt - Create a project in Gantt tool independently from projects in JIRA

Yuta Komiya

I'm a user of Big Gantt associated with my JIRA project.

I feel troublesome that Big Gantt can only import tasks from a whole project. What I want to do is to visualize a chunk of tickets under a/some project in Gantt chart style. I'm looking for a method or another tool that can enable me to do the following:

1. The main purpose of the tool is to visualize Gantt chart
2. If a user wants, the task can be linked to the existing JIRA tickets one by one, but the ticket doesn't need to be located under a project defined in JIRA
3. (nice to have) Each task in the Gantt chart doesn't always need to be associated with the existing tasks in JIRA: each task can be independently recorded in the Gantt tool

Hello @Yuta Komiya 

I have personally not used the Big Gantt plugin but the input for most of these plugins is based on a JQL filter having issues coming from Jira project. Thus, I don't think you can have issues in the Big Gantt view which are not part of any Jira project.
