PD tasks

Question

One thing that I feel is lacking in the discovery feature is the ability to easily share and track tasks that are required for the item in question with the ability to track progress.

It would be good to know if this is something that is being considered?

Hi! we now have a new answer for this if you're using the Premium plan of Jira Product Discovery - you can use it to manage discovery tasks:

Hi @Dean Price @Minesh Patel @Krystal O_Connor - have any of you found a way to easily view, track, & manage tasks directly in JPD?

I posted a similar question in the JPD community - How to easily view discovery tasks across ideas in a JPD view? - but there doesn't seem to be a solution that addresses the key points:

* Need the ability to see the discovery tasks & their status across each idea in the JPD view without having to drill down into each one. (see below for an example)
* Even if you use Jira Software tasks and link them to the ideas in JPD, you still don't have the ability to view the tasks across the ideas in a view without having to open the idea/drill down.

Thanks everyone, that's great context. It is not currently something we have on our list of commitments, but we've discussed it a few times. In the meantime you can actually add tasks/a checklist in each idea's description:

It's pretty basic though: using this you need to open each idea to see the status of each task, you don't have a place where you can see tasks assigned to you, tasks across all ideas, etc.

Task tracking is a whole other beast - I'm not convinced we should tackle that vs jobs that are more closely related to product discovery.
