Where can I find epic reports in new UI?

Olha Kozynets

Previously, I could mark an epic as done in the expandable left-side column next to backlog. Then if I needed to "undone" it I could go Repors-> epic reports

But now I see no such option on UI. Has it been moved? Where can I find my epic reports?

Thank you in advance

Hi Olha, welcome to the Community. I was playing around with this and actually ended up reaching out to Support because what I found was with the new Issue View you can't actually display the Epic Status on the detailed issue view. This is most unfortunate for sure. There is a Bug (now closed) that reported neither the epic name or epic status fields were able to be displayed in the new issue view. The addressed the epic name (most critical for sure) but indicated they had not plans to add the epic status. :-( JSWCLOUD-17777 

With that said, there are a couple of solutions (credit to Support for this info) that I wish to share here for you and all future searchers.

1. you could create a filter (JQL) and search for the issue you want to change the Epic status on and perform a Bulk edit. double-yuck.
2. You can create an automation (manual). Here is a link to the video that support presented to me Automation - Change Epic Status to In Progress , but I have provided the text details as I am unsure how long the video might survive.
   • Create an automation Manual trigger
   • Add a condition of issue type Epic
   • Copy and paste the text below into the "more options" box. NOTE: you will need to adjust for your instance possibly as the 10012 may not me your custom field number for Epic status. You can determine this when assembling a JQL search and type "epic" then the auto-complete options will convey your CF#.

{
    "fields": {
        "customfield_10012": {
   "value": "In Progress"
  }
        }
    }
}
