No results on kanban board after amending default filter query

Gerry Bolger

Hi I have one project and thress pahses in it, so want 3 boards (Kanban)

My default filter is project = JE

I have tried to seperate some of the epiucs and using epics as swimlanes using this

project = JE AND "Epic Link" in (JE-14, JE-25) ORDER BY Rank ASC

The query shows on submit, but as soon as I go back to the board nothing,.

I have checked subtasks and removed the filter.

Any thoughts?

Hi Gerry! So are you trying to have a board per phase? If so what defines your phases? You mention Epics are your phases associated to an epic?

Basically, if you want three boards that display each phase then you simply need to define the underlying filter that results in the desired list of issues. For example if indeed each phase is an epic...

board1 - epic link = xxx

board2 - epic link = yyy

board3 - epic link = zzz

However, if you are using next-gen "epic link" does not exist/apply.

I also note that you seem to be saying (?) that when you run the query the results are as desired but the board is not showing the same. Is that so? If so, please provide screenshot of the board filter and any sub-filter and also check the swimlane settings.

Jack thank you. I'm using cloud not next-gen, so you're aware (and fairly new to this!)

I've several epis per phase, so we're using to track end of distinct contractual phases and outputs (more traditional PM than a software implementation) I'm assuming that I can have multiple epics per board

board 1 - epic link = Je01 AND Je01 for example

Thanks

To be clear NG is a project type w/in Cloud.

multiple epics associated to a board - yes absolutely.

The first thing to understand about boards is that they are fundamentally visual representations of a DB query. Now there is more to boards for sure but what they display is driven by the underlying filter which is what you are currently trying to figure out.

My best advice at this point is to start by going to the Advance search for issues and construct a filter and tweak until the results capture what you want to see on a board. Then save the filter so that you can create a board from that filter. Once you have this done you can play w/ the display of the boards using swimlanes, ranking columns and status mapping, quick filters, etc.

Ian, making slow but positive progress, the EPIC filtration is working, so I've managed to get the filters down to the number per phase, and they are showin gin the Kanban board. BUT as soon as I assign an Epic swimlane, they vanish. Any thoughts?

This is my filter project = JE AND "Epic Link" in (JE-25, JE-14)
