Creating a new Swimlane for Kanban board once a new component has been created using Automation

Jenny Luther March 21, 2024

In my current project I have a Kanban board that Groups By Queries. Those Queries are essentially all issues that are tied to a specific component. I wanted to make a Jira Automation that creates a new swimlane automatically if a new component is created instead of manually creating it each time. Is that possible? If so I would appreciate anyone's knowledge on what kind of trigger rules I should be using. Thanks in advance!

Here is the Kanban board where I have manually created some of the Queries for each component

Hi @Jenny Luther -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

I do not believe that is possible.

There is no public REST API function to get / update the quick filters for the swim lane configuration of a board.

Kind regards,
Bill

Hi @Jenny Luther 

I hope this message finds you well.

If you are up to Partner Apps would suggest trying our Advanced Kanban and Agile Boards. We allow you to pick any Jira standard or custom field as column/swimlane and we will be auto-populating columns / swimlanes based on your issues. So, as soon as you have an issue with a new component defined a swimlane will be created or you can click "Add Swimlane" and pick one from the list generated by Automation.

You can also go to extreme and extend your automation rule to create new swimlane poking our Rest API if you want.
