Custom Hierarchy Epic -> Feature -> Story -> Sub-task

Hello,

I try to create a custom hierarchy: Epic → Feature → Story → Sub-task. Unfortunately it doesn’t work.

Here is the code:

[jira.customfield_feature]
name = “Feature”
issue_type = “Feature”
outward_link = “Feature For”
update_from_issue_key = “customfield_story”
dimension = true

[jira.customfield_story]
name = “Story”
issue_type = “Story”
inward_link = “Part of Feature”
dimension = true

[[jira.issue_hierarchies]]
name = “My New Hierarchy”
all_member_name = “This is the new hierarchy”
levels = [
{name=“Epic”,key_column=“epic_key”},
{name=“Feature”,key_column=“customfield_feature”,issue_type=“Feature”},
{name=“Story”,key_column=“customfield_story”,issue_type=“Story”},
{name=“Sub-task”,key_column=“subtask_key”}
]

Could you please let me know where the problem is?

Hi @Paul1,

If you want to add an additional level between the Epic and parent issues, you must define the Epic level separately. In this case, the hierarchy can’t use the key_column = "epic_key" parameter. Please review the eazyBI documentation page with a similar example - Additional Issue hierarchies.
