Show only Sub-Tasks in Kanban Board

Eric Brahmann

Hi all,

i am a bit confused .... i thougth this Task would be very simple... but after 15 min of googling and trying .... i got no clue....

I got an Kanban Board (all to me assigned Issues), Issue Types are Epics with linked User Stories that contain Sub-Tasks.

My actually ToDos are Sub-Tasks only, so I want to have a quick Filter showing those without their Parent Tasks (User Stories / Epics).

This JQL does not Show any Task ....

issuetype =Sub-task or type = sub-Task

Hello,

What is your project type? Is it a software project? To ask it another way. Is it a business board or Jira software board?

Bastian Stehmann

Hi Eric,

do your subtasks appear on your board without that quick-filter? Do you use any swimlanes?

Eric Brahmann

I am using epics as swimmlanes

Eric Brahmann

Actually i do not know, but it seems to be a scrum and therefore probably a Software Project

Filtering for "Technical-Task" instead works better, but then the Swimmlanes are not shown any more.....

Technical Task will be the right one, as it looks that there is no Sub-Task named Sub-Task.

You can use "issuetype in subtaskIssueTypes()" instead to have it working if there will be more Sub-Task-Types added in the future.

The swimlanes can not be shown any more, because you filter out the epics.

If you want to have the swimlanes back, just add "or issuetype=Epic" to your quickfilter

Eric Brahmann

- I l ike your tip regarding the General Approach ( "issuetype in subtaskIssueTypes()" ) thx for that

- Adding "or issuetype=Epic" does not work, all subtasks are shown, but the Epic-swimmlanes are not shown

You are right, sorry. There is no direct link from Sub-Task to Epic, so Jira is can not connect them both if the Story is not present.

Maybe you can do that by using queries instead of epics as swimlanes, but that means a lot of work, because you will have to add the swimlane for every epic by hand.

If you have the scriptrunner Add-On, you should be able to use

issueFunction in subtasksOf("Epic-Link=YourEpicID")

Hi there

The following JQL shows only sub-tasks, and can be used in a kanban board:

issuetype in subtaskIssueTypes()
