Can I sort items by Initiative, Epics and stories on JPD?

[SATHYA MURTHY KARTHIK]

I would like to sort items on the JPD board by inititative > Epics > Stories but I can't seem to be able to find any features that allows me to do this. 

Saw something similar online and wanted to see if it applies to JPD. Thanks in advance.

Hi @SATHYA MURTHY KARTHIK and welcome to the Community!

Short answer here is no.

Jira Product Discovery is a bespoke product for managing - well - product discovery. It is the ideation stage that comes before delivery: collecting ideas, adding insights from different sources to them and prioritising those ideas before the actual product building starts.

Everything inside JPD is built around the concept of Ideas. They are the only issue type available, but do offer a lot of specific features to organise, refine and prioritise those ideas. Once you have decided what to build, the work items needed to track the delivery work can be managed in Jira (Software), using the different hierarchy levels you refer to.

You can see JPD as a tool to help you make the necessary decisions to "build the right thing". Once you start building, Jira can help you organise the delivery work so you can "build it the right way".

Hope this helps
