Display the name of a parent issue in a column in structure

[Martin Härri]

I would like to display the issue (key and/or name) which is linked with "is parent of" in the column of a structure, can I do this?

Hello @Martin Härri 

Dionathan with ALM Works here.

You could use the following sample formula and let me know how it goes (PS: this formula will work only on the latest versions of Structure (V7.0 +)):

issueLinks.FILTER($.type.outward = "is parent of" AND $.destination = this).MAP($.source.key CONCAT ' - ' CONCAT $.source.summary)

or

issueLinks.FILTER($.type.inward = "is parent of" AND $.destination = this).MAP($.source.key CONCAT ' - ' CONCAT $.source.summary)

depending on your setup.

Basically, it is filtering the issue links by "Is parent of" and it should show the Issue Key + Summary in a Formula Column.

Please refer to this article for more information about Item Property Reference

If any further questions, let me know.

Brilliant, that's exactly what I was looking for, thanks a lot, Dionathan!

Really cool - was looking for this and exactly does what I wanted.

Would be great to have examples like this documented at the ALM Works wiki for Structure.

Good suggestion, @M0214104  👍 

I have passed it along to the Structure team and you can expect to see it in the Sample Formulas one day soon.

Customization in Board is not possible as of now in Jira Work Management Template Projects.

If you need configurations you can choose to create a kanban board where you will have more control over how cards can be displayed.

Thanks,

Hi Pramodh, I don't think your answer is related to my question, I was talking about Structure from ALMWorks, not kanban boards

Thanks Got it :-)
