Dependency between two tasks in Jira Work Management

Question

Dear Jira Comuntity,

I am testing Jira Work Management as an admin in a team managed project.
In research I have often seen that two tasks can be linked in the timeline. However, when trying it out, I cannot reproduce this feature. Can you tell me how to create the dependency between two tasks?

1000 thanks and best regards
Julius

Hi @Ravi Sagar _Sparxsys_

Thanks for your quick reply!

I am using "Jira Work Management", so I am afraid I don´t have "roadmap" available?! I do have a timeline though.

The issue type in this example is a task. I have the same problem with sub-tasks. On this picture I hovered over the task and it should show the link. It doesn´t -_-

Do you have an idea what the Problem could be?

Thanks in advance Ravi!
Julius

Hi @Julius Liljeberg

It is indeed the issue linking. What is the type of the issue link? When you do it from the roadmap view the issue link type is "blocks".
