Everything Else in a kanban board

Question

Hi,

I have a kanban board where in ,the query specified is like

project in(A,B) and issuetype in(Bug,Story,Tech Task,Epic) and have added Swimlanes as

project in (A,B) and issuetype in (Story,Bug,"Tech Task") or issuetype = Epic AND status != Blocked...

In Evertything Else i amble to see the Epics with status Blocked..

Is there any other way that I do not want to see any issues in Everything else ..Can you please suggest..

Regards,
Suma

This would be driven by the board’s filter. If all you want to see is those issues identified by…

project in (A,B) and issuetype in (Story,Bug,"Tech Task") or issuetype = Epic AND status != Blocked

then this should be your board’s filter.

Hi @Suma Pralhad Kustagi

If I am understanding the question, your filter may have an order of operations issue if you are trying to just exclude blocked epics.  Perhaps try this for a board filter and remove the swim lanes/filter.

project IN (A,B) AND ( issuetype IN (Story,Bug,"Tech Task") OR ( issuetype = Epic AND status != Blocked ) ) ORDER BY Rank ASC

Even with that filter, I am wondering about your filtering on status.  Status values are usually mapped to a board column when you want them displayed.  Do you have a column on the board with the status of "Blocked"?

Best regards,
