Could someone please help me figure out how to create multiple projects on one board?

[Eric O Callaghan]

I’ve created a project and I have multiple actions within it such as not started, in progress etc. However, in my previous job I could have multiple projects/campaigns on the one board that I could click in and out of like tabs. 

This meant that each campaign/project would have its own list of actions. Could someone please explain how I recreate this? Right now I just have an overall project board and I’m using it more so as a to do list for everything, rather than separating it by campaign.

Any help is welcomed.

Thank you

Hi @Eric O Callaghan , welcome to the Atlassian Community! 

You can look into creating quick filters to toggle between projects using JQL. 

However to give you a more detailed answered I need to know the following: 

Is this a team-managed project or company-managed? 

Is this Cloud or DC/server? 

Theres a similar thread that discusses this in great detail here as well as a response by the Atlassian Team:

Hope this helps. 

Kind Regards,

Hi there,

Thank you for your response. This is a project that I created myself, but it seems to fall under team managed business when I check the project type. 

In my last role, I had a dashboard and I could create multiple projects and have them all on the one board. That way I could click into each tab and update actions specific to that project. Now it seems like I just have one project with no option to add more projects within it.

Hi @Eric O Callaghan 

As far as I'm aware to achieve what you're looking for you'll need to be using a company-managed project. 

There is a very detailed answered in this thread by Trudy which I would recommend reading as it solves the exact scenario you're describing: 

https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Software-questions/Help-to-create-one-board-with-multiple-projects-and-one-single/qaq-p/1845705

Again, with quick filters you will have tabs on top of the main board, see below example:

I’m using a team managed project so it looks like I can’t do what I need. 

Thank you for your help
