I want to implement quick filters in a team-managed software project.

Question

Hello,

I'm looking to add some quick filters which I can show above my backlog in a team-managed software project. But currently I can only find something called 'custom filters'. While they look the same, I actually want to show them as buttons above the backlog like I have in my other project (which is a company-managed software project). Is this a feature specifically for company-managed projects? Or did you change something recently?

Thank you in advance,

Best regards,

Pieter

As far as I'm aware you can't configure them as buttons; they appear as checkboxes on the board

Yes I found those, but I can't configure them as buttons at the top of the board

Hi @pieter thijs

Team-managed project boards include a similar feature to quick filters called custom filters. Project admins configure the filters using JQL and they appear as checkboxes on the board.
