How do you remove a closed JIRA epic for the list of Epic links?

[Paul White]

I read the similar questions and work around from 2 years ago but no solution has been proposed.  This is still very annoying to my team as we work through several closed Epics.  The list will continue to grow as we go froward and will become even more annoying.  Once the Epic is closed (and all related stories closed), how do we not see that Epic link when creating a new story?

We have reasons for keeping all closed stories and epics avail and the copy it off to a backup workaround is not acceptable to our team.  Thank you very much.

Hi Stephen, you have probably not yet used JETI's flexible event notifications.

You can fully customize it with custom recipients (e.g. email address in the sender field), custom templates, and a JQL filter to precisely select the issues you want to process the event on.

To put it short, you have duplicate your JIRA Notification Schemes in form of JETI Notification Templates without the need for post functions.

I hope this helps you.
