How to create a Kanban Board for one issue type across all Jira Projects?

[Chris K]

Dear Community,

We are currently working on our project portfolio management. Therefore, we created the issue type “project”, which is one of our higher hierarchy issue types and is used for project reporting via advanced roadmaps. The issue type will be present in all of our project based jira projects. In addition to the views in advanced roadmap, we want to create a kanban board which shows the detailed status of each of the project issuetypes across all jira projects. Therefore, we created the simple filter "issuetype = projects". 

Unfortunately, we are not able to create a Kanban Board based on this filter. I am wondering about the reason for this restriction as I am not seeing any error message or something like that. Do you know the reason and how to fix it?

Addition: Our approach is to create a general filter so that new project issue types in new Jira projects are taken into account directly in the board.

Hi Paul,

I don't see where is the problem. Have you set your Active Directory in your three instances?

Yes and I got it working now. Thanks.
