nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

I would like the group "Epic empty" or "Issues without Epic" to appear first in the order.

When you use group by Epic, I want to order starting the group "epic empty" or "Issues without Epic," but I tried with a JQL query and have not found the solution.

Isn't this way possible to order this way?

I.e.

> Issues without Epic
> Epic 1 Lore
> Epic 2 Ipsum
> Epic 3 Bar

Hello @Adriano Silveira

You cannot change the order of the swimlanes when you use the built in Group By options.

If you want to explicitly order the swimlanes while creating swimlanes per Epic then you would have to define swimlanes based on Queries. That option is not available for Team Managed project boards.

If you are able to define swimlanes based on Queries then you would have to create a JQL for the issues with no Epic, and then an explicit JQL for each individual Epic.

Hey @Adriano Silveira

You can achieve this by creating Query based swimlanes! Go to Configure Board through the ... on the top right of your board view, then navigate to "Swimlanes" on the left menu.

Here you need to create the queries for your swimlanes, anything that doesn't match a query will go into a swimlane called "Everything else". For your particular use case it would be:

Query 1: No epic
1. parent IS EMPTY
Query 2: Epic 1
1. parent = EPIC-1
and so on

Mind you, this requires you to have every epic having it's own swimlane in a query, or just let everything else fall below!

You can also choose to "Group by" Epic (via the Group by button on the board), but if they do not have an epic it will simply hide it.

Thanks a lot for the fast answer.

I also added `issuetype != Epic`
