Need Guidance for setting up Kanban Teams in JIRA Align with the JIRA Connector in place

Bob Hunt

February 27, 2025

We've been able to successfully integrate a bit more than 50 teams (10 ARTs) between JIRA and JIRA Align. I've got a handful of teams who are operating in Kanban (vs. Scrum) mode.

I'm looking for direction on how to best implement these Kanban boards within JIRA Align.

Of course, I understand the mechanics of adding the board but am struggling with the Kanban Set-up / configuration work within JA. 

Within JIRA Align I would think that we want to mimic the presentation / board.

For example, within JIRA the board is set up with workflow states mapped to Kanban Columns (i.e. In Progress, Code Review, Blocked, Done) and they've set up swim lanes for each PI)

Within JIRA Align we also define 'swim lanes' and "columns" within each swim lane. 
I'm not sure how to best configure this board. 
Is there any published detailed guidance on configuring Kanban boards? Of course, I've found some of the help pages (i.e. Create a Kanban Board, Setting up a Kanban Board) but these don't really describe the Swim Lane and Columns adequately for me. 
Any idea where I can get add'l sources?
Thanks in advance!
