Create mind map from exported Jira issues with links

[Jonathan Rauscher]

Hi all,

I have exported all of my team's issues via Jira Cloud extension in Microsoft Excel. I'm trying to find a way to create a dependency / mind map graph of the issues and epics to help with prioritization. We already have links made. Anyone know of any solutions?

Hi @Jonathan Rauscher 

If you would be interested in an add-on to view your entire issue hierarchy in a CSV format, you can try out our plugin

Issue Hierarchy Reports

The app also provides sum up at each level for time estimates and story points.

(Disclaimer: I work on RVS, the vendor for this app)

We developed an app witch might be helpful:

- Issue Links Viewer - app for displaying links map, can be on used on single issue or JQL search (displaying relation only between results from JQL). Downside - it doesn't include Epics, only Jira linking and parent-subtasks links.

In our environment we also use this free app:

- Epics Map for Jira - for seeing size of epics and cloning issues epics

Hi @Jonathan Rauscher 

There is nothing built-in for Jira Cloud to create such a dependency tree / mind map graph.  The dependencies shown in the built-in roadmap features are all one-directional and based on the issue hierarchy (epic > story/bug/task...) and not based upon other linkages.

Perhaps either...

• check the Atlassian Marketplace for apps to add this: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=cloud&product=jira&query=mind%20map or https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=cloud&product=jira&query=dependency%20map
• or if you already have a tool which can map based upon item data, perhaps review if it can consume the data from a Jira export to create the map

Kind regards,
Bill
