Hi. Im on a trail of Stucture in clode and I want to change order of my top issues (initiatives) but I cant. It replys thet I cant change a dynamic row? They have prefered rank in my backlog. Anyone who knows?
Hi Johan,
Thanks for your inquiry and for trying Structure Cloud.
The message you received is due to the fact that you are using the Automation feature. When you Insert issues in your structure automatically with the Search Inserter JQL, it displays the results the the same way you would see them in Jira using the same Query. Therefore, you generally cannot change the order of issues when your structure is being built dynamically.
For now, you can add your Initiatives into your structure manually instead of using the Search Inserter Generator. You can do so by clicking on the 'Add existing items' (magnifying glass icon) button next to the 'Folder' button:

Structure Cloud is still being actively developed and we are currently working on implementing the Sorter Generator, which will allow more flexibility with how inserted issues can be rearranged, including by Rank.
Please feel free to email support@almworks.com if you'd like to be notified when the feature becomes available.
Best Regards,

Hi Vlad. Thanks for your reply!
@Vlad[ALM Works] Do you have any timframe or estimate of when it will be avaliable for Cloud?
Do you recon that a viabble workaroud is to introduce a custom field to Initiatives with a prionumer and ad sort ASC to JQL? Any other suggestions?

Thanks for the follow up. Apologies for the delayed response.
We don't have a date we can communicate right now unfortunately but you can follow our Structure Cloud Roadmap here:
https://wiki.almworks.com/x/rQMUB
Yes, a JQL with sorting by the desired Field in Ascending or Descending order will display it in that way but you won't be able to manually reorder. The only other way right now is to place the issues manually into the structure and then you will be able to move them around as desired.
I apologize for the inconvenience.
I like to add that with the enhancement, it should has the same view as in Jira. The use case here is we ordered our sub-task in certain way in Jira, not serially by issue key number. So we like to see the same order in Structure, that we set in Jira, which is not available now.
Any update on implementing the Sort generator into Structure Cloud ? We really need this because a basic sort in the Insert JQL works only for the main elements that are added through the Insert, but the sort is not applied to any elements added through Extend generators.
Hello Guy,
There is no specific date of the release yet. But it's a high priority feature for us and it is the next item on our roadmap. If you would be interested, we can notify you by email once the feature is released.
