Can I filter the Versions and Epics listed in the backlog view

Question

Can I filter the Versions and Epics listed in the backlog view?

I am using Versions to group together Epics by quarter which are the high level milestones.

I could apply the Q1-2022 Label to the epics and the stories using automation, but trying to find a way to select the version, which filters the epics, and in turn filters the stories, and bugs.

Taking on board your input, I could decode to only display the Q1 Epics, and only add Q2 when we are ready to work on those.

Must be spring cleaning season, I also learned that there is an Epic Status, and a Workflow so I have been able to clean up the backlog view by removing epics we have shipped by marked epic status as done.

Hi @Neil Wills ,

If you change the filter for the board and exclude the epics there, they won't show up in the backlog.

But that works only if you don't need the epics in the board at all and is only good to handle if the epics don't change often.

Using Quick Filter might be another approach.

For the versions, I don't know any way to filter them.
