Can we add an expand feature to an epic?

Jenny Lapat

We would like the ability to add an expanding feature to an epic, ex. expand an epic to reveal sub-tasks beneath the epic .  Conversely, we would also like to condense sub-tasks under an epic.

Is there a way when we are searching for issues or tasks, that only the epics are shown in the search filter? This way when we select an epic, the sub-tasks expand beneath the epic?

Example:

EPIC 1

       Sub-Tasks A

       Sub-Tasks B

EPIC 2

       Sub-Tasks A

       Sub-Tasks B

       Sub-Tasks C

We are a publishing business and we are having trouble filtering through hundreds of sub-tasks.  We are planning to use epics as 'campaigns' and the projects as our 'advertisers'.  Since we run hundreds of campaigns need a solution to organize our view.

 

Thank you for the help!

Hello @Jenny Lapat,

First of all... I have a doubt:

Do you not use Tasks?

And now, lemme try help you.

1. To find only Epics
   1. you can use Type = Epic at your filter. 
      
      
2. And to show only issues in Epic, 
   
   1. you should use this filter: issuekey in linkedIssues("<EPIC_ID")

 

Did I help you? 

Regards,

Lameck.
