Issue Filter is not showing the Epic Name

Jon Cumberworth

We have multiple epics under a project and we are not able to see or filter our Issues based on Epics they are tied to. Why are the Epic Names not showing in the Issues Filter?

All of the issues are "Child issues" and showing on the Board and can be filtered by Epic name there, but in the issue filter, the column is just blank.

i'm guessing you are using a Next-gen project which does not support the Epic Name field yet.

Go to Columns option near Search button on filter screen section and then choose an Epic Link value from the list like on attached screen.

Yes it is Next Gen. I guess we have to add a label to each issue so we can filter and sort. Thanks

Jon Cumberworth

thanks Michael -- it added another column, but still shows up as blank. Assuming it is the issue with Next Gen,

Jack Brickey

yes it is because u r on NG.

After adding the Column for 'EPIC LInk' on the Issue Search, the result just shows blank column. Is this a feature in the New Gen JIRA Project? Strange because it seems to have broken a simple and very important feature of being able to view the EPIC Link in the issue search. Is there a way to change a New Gen type of project to the older one?

For those looking for how to show the epic name, the parent field can be used to show the assigned epic.

Go to Columns and select Parent to see Epic for each issue.

Hope this helps.
