The Easy Agile Story map shows Capabilities and Epics that are specifically excluded in the board filter.

Filter:

(key != ABC-1234 AND key != ABC-1235 AND key != ABC-1236) AND project = "Project Name" AND issuetype in (Epic, Task, Story) ORDER BY Rank ASC

Epics and Capabilities do not appear in the backlog, so the filter seems to work. Although -  the epics show up in the board filter results, even though they shouldn't from my understanding.

Easy Agile Story help says:

Why am I seeing issues on my Story Map that I don’t see on my backlog?

This can happen if you haven’t mapped an issue status to a board column. This is because we use the board JQL filter and don’t integrate with a board’s column config.

To fix this, you can either map any unmapped statuses to columns or if this is intended, explicitly exclude issues with those status(es) from your board filter.

I have checked and there are no unmapped issues at all in my jira.

Anyone got an idea on how to fix this? I would like to use the story map for a presentation but exclude those Capabilities and Epics I am not focussing on right now.

Thanks a lot

Hi @Matthias Pottmeier -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

As this symptom is specifically for that addon product, I recommend contacting the vendor's support team directly.  You can find their contact information on this marketplace page:

Kind regards,
