how to filter epics on agile board

Andres Velasco

I want to be able to hide closed epics when I am on the Agile Board view, I want to see only the open epics so i can take care of them and forget about the ones that were already closed. Right now we have closed many of them and they are still there difficulting the manouver with the open ones.

Click the down arrow next to epic and select "Mark as done". That should hide the epic in the board view.

You may get the error message which is totally meaningless. If that happens, check if the epic is "closed" instead of "resolved". If closed, reopen the epic, resolve it, then "mark as done", then close it.

Did you try quickfilters?

Thanks but quickfilters only works on issues not Epics

Andres Velasco

Mark as done worked perfectly, thanks!

Exactly. Sry i missed the content somehow

Andres Velasco

I was able to mark the epic as done, but it is not working for other issues they get a "you don't have permissions" message even tough they are the owners of the agile board, do you have which permission should they have to accomplish this?

Andres Velasco

Nevermind I figured out the issue, our Epics were closed that's why we were getting that error (error message was not too descriptive as you already notice).

A better way is to link the Epic Status to the Workflow Status, as done in HowTo: Track Epics on the Control Chart. That way, you just transition them like Issues and the Epic Status just works. Also, this means you can look at them on the Control Chart etc.

It seems rather *redundant* in my opinion to have to click *Mark As Done*. The reason why I say this is because if I mark an Epic as done using the Agile Board, I would expect the Epic's status to change to either Done or Closed. However, that does not happen. I still have to go and close the Epic. The inverse is true as well as described by the OP.

Soon will be releasing a new version of the Agile Board FIlter which will include new filters

I am unable to follow this guide. I hit a hurdle in stem 13. The post function mentioned (Update Issue Custom Field) is not abailable in out JIRA version (7.3.1, hosted). Is there any setting/config that needs to be done to make it available?

@Prem Chudzinski _extensi_ Sorry if I dig up an old string of messages...

Is there a way to add some sort of quick filter to the epics ? I manage a backlog that gathers several project. I want to filter the epics by projects... is that possible ? thx
