I would like to do the following

  1. In the Kanban of team x there is a task (Task A) that must be executed by team Y
  2. I would like for TASK A to generate an entry in the Backlog of team Y
  3. Team Y will work task A when they have the capacity to do it 
  4. When team Y finish with task A I would like to notify team X that Task A is finished (ideally I would like to change the status of Task A in the Kanban of team X and set it to done)

Someone now if this is possible? and How to do it?

Hello Jenny,

Welcome to Atlassian community.

Yes, you can display a common task on two different Classic Kanban board (Not Next-gen) to be worked across teams, you would only need to add a field (For example, labels) that you will use to display it on both board filters. These would be the steps:

- Create task A and add a label to it, like Team_Y_Dependency

- Add Team X as watchers in the task

- On both Kanban Boards (Team X and Team Y), navigate to ... > Project Settings > General > Click to Edit filter Query

- On Advanced mode, add the following parameter to the query, before the ORDER BY if it is configured:

and labels = Team_Y_Dependency

Performing the steps above, the TEAM X will receive notifications once the task is finished and the task will be displayed on both Kanban Boards.

Let me know if this is the option you are looking for.
