ID for EPIC and Tasks can it be different

Munir Patel May 12, 2021

In a Jira cloud software project

EPIC unique ID starts with ABC-##

and also 

Tasks underneath continue to use ABC-##

This breaks the ## sequence for EPIC

Is there a way to see all EPICs with ABC-## and Tasks with XYZ-##

Example:

ABC-01

- XYZ-01

- XYZ-02

ABC-02

- XYZ-03

- XYZ-04

The identifier for an issue is <project key>-<sequence in project>

Epics don't care what project their stories are in, so yes, you can do exactly what you describe by having your Epics in project ABC and the issues(stories) in XYZ

Both  EPICs and Tasks are in same project

Then no, because the issue key is always <project>-<number>
