How to display issues from a Kanban board on a Scrum board?

Britta_jdo7ok

Hi there,

in my team we use a Scrum board and we have certain issues that affect our team that are being processed by another team that uses a Kanban board. Is there a possibility using a quick filter of displaying those issues from the Kanban board on our Scrum board? It would also be across multiple projects.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Britta,

Scrum and Kanban boards only provide you with another view on the issues in a certain project (by default) or a custom filter.

This means. It depends on what the Kanban board of the colleages is displaying. It depends on it own underlying filter (which is mostly: project = XYZ ORDER BY Rang ASC)

With the knowledge of that you can edit the filter your scrum board is using and extend it with the project/filter of the kanban board.

But be aware that all the permissions (display, edit, transition permission) are needed in order to use it properly on your scrum board.

You find your current filter and the one of the kanban board by opening the board and open the board configurations on the top right of your screen (Board > configure > General)

Let us know if this helps.

Hi Andreas,

thanks for your help. So that means that I combine the Scrum board's filter with the Kanban board filter and then every issue from the Kanban board that is related to my project will be displayed in my Scrum board?

That is how it works.

e.g. The Kanban board filter ist projext = x and your scrum board filter ist project = y, then you new scrum board filter would look like: project in (x, y).

BUT

every issue from the Kanban board that is related to my project

This one I must have overread. Of corse, when there are issues in the other kanban board that don't relate to your project than the above filter will display them, too.

In that case you need any kind of identification for the issues that relate to your project. Like a field (value) or certain asignees. This would be then the right filter for your porpose.

Thanks, I think that helps. However, it is still not being displayed. Could it be that it won't be displayed because Kanban board and Scrum board both have different workflows?

Answer is simple (was struggling with this as well)

1. Extend scrum board filter as mentioned above

2. add sprint field to the tickets in the kanban board

3. adjust columns in the scrum board (move unmapped statuses if any)

First, make sure the project where you want to create/modify the combined board is a company-managed project (also known as classic). Boards in team-managed projects cannot query tasks from other projects. The type of the project is written at the bottom of the left menu panel when inside a project.

Create an issue filter that queries tasks from both projects
1. Go to Jira top menu -> Filters -> Advanced issue search
2. Select two projects in the Projects dropdown
3. Click "Switch to JQL" next to the Search button
4. Modify the query as you need, something like
5. ```
((project = ScrumProjectCode AND Sprint IN openSprints()) OR (project = KanbanProjectCode AND <condition>)) ORDER BY Rank DESC
```
6. Save the query under a specific name, grant members of your Scrum project view permissions on this query
Create a Kanban board within your company-managed Scrum project
1. Choose "Board from an existing Saved Filter" option
2. Select the filter query from the previous step
3. Configure board name, columns, swimlanes etc.

The new board will not show the sprint name, but "Kanban board" instead. However, it will show issues within the active sprint from the Scrum project. So you may want to keep the existing "Active sprint" board too.
