Issues from Slack workflow coming to backlog instead of board

[Matej Laucik]

Hello everyone,
I have created a simple Slack workflow that works when reaction is added to a message and it automatically creates Jira issue. Problem is when issue is created it's added to a backlog instead of Jira board. Is it possible to somehow change workflow path so it will go directly to board?
Thank you for you help!

That is probably your jira issue-specific workflow determining that.  I have only dabbled in Slack Workflow builder, but as far as I know the tickets are still created using the regular jira workflows on the project.

You have a few options, including changing the default status a ticket starts in (changed in the workflow itself), and using Jira automation to move the ticket to the desired board (if you're using a sprint board, you would also need to have jira automation select the open sprint).
