Add Epic Panel to Kanban Backlog in JIRA Software?

Question

Hello,

I'm in the midst of setting up a new Project in the new Jira. In my backlog view, I am missing the tab / panel for both Epics and Versions?

Also, when I look at issue types in my project, I also notice Epics is missing from there. I cannot find anywhere in Setting to enable this feature which seemed out the box in previous versions of Jira.

Please help!!??

Thanks, Graeme

Ok, issue was that my colleague had setup the board - I assumed it was the Scrum board, but it wasn't. It was a new Agility Board - Jira should perhaps make this a little clearer as it would have saved some time.

@Graeme BinningtonJust  create a scrum  board in  this project,   an  epic  issue doesn't  need to  have  the issue type epic, it can  be other issue types, if you want an "epic" to  have issue type epic, then add it in issue type scheme.

Best!
