How to show stories under EPICs not assigned to me on my personal Kanban board?

Jayden Li

To elaborate, I have a simple Kanban board where the filter is "assignee=currentuser()" to show all my stories across multiple projects.

However, when I set the swimlanes to be based on EPICs this removes all my stories under EPICs assigned to someone else.

Is there a way to display those stories on my board even if the EPICs are assigned to another person?

Hi @Jayden Li

I would check to make sure there isn't something in the sub-filter that may be excluding tickets from your board.

Here is a JQL I used that allowed me to do what you are trying to do with no issue.

(assignee = currentUser() AND "Epic Link" is not EMPTY) OR assignee = currentUser()

Thanks @Josh Costella

There are no sub-filters and I tried your JQL but it still doesn't seem to work (see screenshot below). When I switch the swimlane to Project or anything other than EPICs they start popping up. I am on version v8.13.8 if it helps

@Jayden Li How many tickets are in your filter? Are your tickets and their Epics really spread across many different Jira projects?

Jayden Li

About 2 dozens spread across a few EPICs and 4 projects

Had the same issue: Solved with the following JQL query and work around:

(assignee = currentUser()) OR (type = Epic) ORDER BY Rank DESC

This will show all Epics as swimlanes. Then quick filter "only my issues"
