Sort tickets by dependencies on Kanban board

Question

Hello!

Tickets on my Kanban board are currently sorted numerically, with the lowest numbered being on top of the others.

Is there a way to have them show up based on dependencies?

For example, I would like BBB-222 be sorted on top of AAA-111, since AAA-111 is blocked by BBB-222.

Thank you very much,

Hi Laurie!

"blocks" tickets will sometimes also have "is blocked by".

Is there any way to make it so "is blocked by" no longer matters when the ticket it is blocked by is completed?

Or issueLinkType in ("blocks"), if you don't have ScriptRunner.

Hi @Frédéric Boisvert ~ what about creating a swimlane in your board config based on this JQL:  issueFunction in hasLinks("blocks")
