Filtering Epic Swim lanes on Kanban Board

Question

Hello,

I have an Epic filtered swim lane on a board that a user wants filtered. They don't want a couple of the epics to show. When I go to filter those two out, it also removes the "Issues without epics" area at the bottom. I have tried multiple ways of using JQL to filter out the two that they want filtered out, but I can seem to get the "Issues without epics" to stay. Has anyone else had this issue?

Thank you!

Hey Josh,

Thank you so much for the reply. I tried what you recommended and it still wasn't showing up. I did find out how to add those. I am still fairly new to Jira and found "Epic Link" is EMPTY and added that with the OR logic after the "Epic Link" != XXX-9998 functions

Thank you!

If you are just trying to remove the Epics themselves, I would try adding this to the JQL filter used for the board:

AND key not in (XXX-9998, XXX-9999)
