I spun up a new project, and I can't get it to work correctly. I am not new to jira, but this is the first project I created myself. It's a team managed project, Kanban type. The issue I am having is that the Epic won't go into the swim lane (, and I can't find how to add the Epic Link field so I can attach issues to the Epic.
At the top there is a search field, next to that a person icon, next to that add people icon, then there's an Epic dropdown filter. My first epic appears in this dropdown, but it is not in the swimlane.
