Enable all hierarchy

[Saikat Das]

I am having a Larger EPIC to track the project.

I have used a filter to sort out the EPIC and it's issues : (project = "NAME" AND "Epic Link"= EPIC-1)

In AR, I am able to view all the stories/Task under the same EPIC. But I'm not able to see the subtasks attached to the Task/Stories. 

I can understand the gap is - my filter is finding everything that is attached to the EPIC link and the subtasks doesn't have the option to add epic links.

Can someone suggest a better way to import the EPIC, which would help me visualise all the Task/Story and it's sub-tasks.

Hi @Saikat Das 

If you only want that Epic and all its Story level issues and their subtasks in the plan then use this JQL:

issue in portfolioChildIssuesOf(" EPIC-1")

Otherwise, you could just add the whole project to the plan or a board that filters all of the relevant content, if one exists?

Thanks @Curt Holley

The solution provided above i.e. the JQL filter helped to filter out all the stories along with the hierarchy under the EPIC.

@Curt Holley - I had a question regarding the 2nd solution, mentioned above - where I can import the whole project. 

In my scenario: I have one project but it's highly horizontal in nature and it need to track Story/Task  and sub tasks from multiple verticals within the company. 

What would be the best approach ?

In the plan, go to: Configure/Issue sources
From there you can add Projects, Boards or Filters.
