I can't see the Issue Types in my project settings

[Michaël Ménaché]

I'm a project admin, the project is company-managed and I need to add Epic issue type to my project to activate the Timeline.

If I go the Timeline, it says:

"Your project doesn't have epics configured

In order to use the timeline, an administrator needs configure an epic issue type."

So I want to do just this by adding the Epic issue type to my project. I tried following this page: https://support.atlassian.com/jira-work-management/docs/customize-your-project

But the Issue Type section doesn't appear in my project's settings navigation bar.

How do I solve this.

Hello,

It means that you are on Jira Cloud and  all your projects are next-gen projects. You can not associate issue type scheme to next-gen projects. You should create a classic project if you need to do it.

In Next-gen projects, you should go to project settings -> Issue Types and add a new issue type there.
