Service Desk tasks not in Backlog Filter

Vanessa Grimes

We recently started using JIRA Service Desk but have been using JIRA for a while to run our sprints.  We have a backlog filer that is simply "ORDER BY Rank ASC" so it should pull in ALL tasks from all projects.  However Service Desk projects are not showing up.  We really want to be able to add a Service Desk task to our sprints to track them on our scrum board, but even after adding the fields to the Service Desk screens, and setting the sprint value, the issues aren't showing up in the backlog or in the active sprint I assigned to.  Can someone please help us get these service tasks into our backlog/sprints?

Hello Vanessa,

I understand that you would like to Display the issues from a JIRA Service Desk project on a Scrum board of a JIRA Software project. Is it correct?

Per your description, it seems you have already configured the board filter to display the SD issues on Board settings > Edit filter Query, so I recommend you to try the following:

1 - Navigate to your board > Board settings > Columns > Check if the Statuses of the Service Desk issues are properly mapped in the Board columns:

P.S: To properly display the issues in the backlog of the board, move the status to the first column (left to right)

2 - If that didn't do the trick, check in the Swimlane Tab of the board setting if it is not configured with a different view

If both steps above are properly configured, please provide us a screenshot of the general and column tabs of your board.

Let me know if this information helps.
