Sprint Board swimlanes based on Epic color

Question

I'm trying to create a new swimlane on our sprint board based on epic color. I have about 5 epics with the same color that I want to group together. I tried the filter "Epic Color" = ghx-label-6 but that isn't working.

Anyone else have success with this?

Hi @Kristi Johnson !

It looks to me, that it is impossible out-of-box,

maybe it is possible to use external apps like:

- JQL Search Extensions for Jira - the JQL extensions

- ScriptRunner for Jira

- etc.

If you are ready to consider them, then need to research.

I ended up using

parentEpic in (DBG-5594, DBG-5593, DBG-7086, DBG-7085, DBG-5598, DBG-6692, DBG-5596, DBG-6879)

I'll have to keep the Epic list updated but at least this shows all the sub-tasks under the same swimlane as the main stories.
