I was trying to set up a dedicated project for Initiatives, another for Epics, and multiple projects for individual teams. The goal was to have a dedicated Initiatives project that would have child epics from a dedicated Epics project, and then have child task-level issues from the team projects.
When I construct the projects this way I am unable to see the Add Child Issue option. I am able to build the structures using the parent field in the child tickets, but I have to create them first and then add the parent.
Is there a way to get the add child button to show and allow me to select the project I need to create child tickets in?
Hello, Good day. For your requirement your current workaround is best option (to create the child issue and then add the parent field). To enable the add child issue option, you need to add the child issues types to the project where you have initiatives (I believe you want to have only initiative in this project)
So there's no way to use add child to add child tickets in other projects?

Not until you add child issues types to the project where you have the parent issue. Or you can add the parent directly in child issue. Thanks

Adding all the child types will defeat the purpose of having work broken out to team projects, with epics and above in their own separate Jira projects.
It would just be great to have the ability to add issues from within the epic itself. Yes, its possible to do so in plans, but that UI is not the friendliest, and then all changes need to be committed in a separate step,
