Create a work breakdown that syncs with JIRA and creates stories automatically

Question

Hello all!

In my story mapping, I like to create diagrams with work breakdown so we can already see the big picture in development and the dependencies between stories.
However we need to use a third party software to build it, and the add manually all boxes creating stories with name, points and dependencies. It's a nightmare.
Do you know of any add-on that does that?

Thank you!

Hi @Marina

You may want to try out the newly released Move and Organize for Jira app that provides a dynamic view of your Jira projects in a tree hierarchy.

It allows you to visually overview and also edit on-the-fly (create, edit, recursively move, delete et c) issues. Zoom and pan the tree view quickly and smoothly using keyboard shortcuts and mouse drag-n-drop support that enable you to work very efficiently also with larger projects!

Finally, it does not require any customization of your existing Jira projects - it plugs in directly for your users without making any non-standard customizations to the project or its issues.

Feel free to reach out to me directly if you have any questions or would like to provide suggestions!

With best regards,

Erik

Hi @Marina

Apologies for the delay responding.

I'm not sure it'll be easy to find something which looks exactly like this unless you built it within one of the diagram options above. I found another option though:

* Easy Agile Programs for Jira: Allows for linking between issues to show dependencies

^ If something like this still isn't sufficient, I'd suggest looking through the Marketplace for story mapping apps or similar external apps which integrate with Jira and Confluence.

Hi Stephen! I mean like this, where each box is a story and the connectors are the dependencies between the stories (sorry,I had to blur the text):
