Sum story points by epic cross project

Hello, I am trying to sum the story points for epics while also displaying epic level fields. I currently have Issue > Epic and story points created but it is creating multiple entries for the same epic with story points connected to each project. For example, one epic has stories on 3 teams thus creating the epic three times with story points associated for each project.

Here are two possible solutions for this:

  1. You can use Epic Link dimension to see all issues for one Epic. Epic Link dimension has a project level as well. However, this project-level represents a project of the Epic.

Epic Link dimension works the best when you would like to analyze issues in epics. This dimension does not pull in data from epics and sub-tasks, though. You would need to use custom calculations to pull in values for Epics, though. Here is one report example in our demo account using Epic Link.

  1. You can define a new hierarchy with levels Epic>Parent>Sub-tasks by removing the project level. Here is a definition for Epic without project hierarchy described in our documentation.

With this approach, you can use the new Issue hierarchy for your report, and any default measure will work there.
