  1. Moving items in the structure will update ANY task link / parent

    Our organization would like to have a possibility to move any task in structure and update issue links accordingly.
    F.e. Move the subtask from one issue to another in structure - this should change the parent link for the subtask.

    Move task without epic link inside the Epic - update Epic link.

    Move Epic task to another random task - a popup should appear with question "choose link type".

  2. Export to Google Sheets

    Make it possible to directly export a structure into Google Sheets. It will save one step converting an Excel file into Google Sheets.

  4. Group by Link Type

    Group by Link Type.

    We have many link types used to represent different things.

    E.g.
    - A "Story" ticket may [LinkType: Satisfy] many "Acceptance Criteria" tickets
    - A "Bug" ticket may [LinkType: Block] a "Story Ticket"
    - An "Epic" may [LinkType: Solve] a "High Level Requirement" ticket

    Where tickets have multiple types of link coming from them, would be nice to have that as an explicit folder / grouping in the tree.

    E.g.
    Story X

    Blocked By
    Bug Y
    Bug Z
    Solves
    Acceptance Criteria A
    Acceptance Criteria B

    Thank you for the suggestion!

    We cannot reuse Jira’s issue view, so we will have to implement our own, and implementing it will be a challenge. Most of the Jira fields can already be viewed inside Structure and changed by inline editing.

    Could you please describe what you would like to view or edit in the side panel?

  6. Support S-JQL in JIRA Cloud

    S-JQL is supported in non-Cloud versions of Structure. It would be really helpful if it could be made available to the Cloud version as well.

    Thank you for your suggestion!

    Unfortunately, Jira Cloud does not support custom JQL functions for now. So it’s not possible to migrate S-JQL as is.
    We may try to find a workaround for some specific use-cases. So could you please describe what you want to do with S-JQL?

  7. Why the limited functionality of Structure Cloud?

    Why the limited functionality? No Gadget for Dashboard? No column sort? No bulk change?

  8. Deeper hierarchy in issue types

    Our organization would like to have a possibility to create another tasks layer above Epics (like in Jira's advanced roadmaps). For example, I create a new issue type "Initiative" in Jira and then I can group in structure gantt all tasks in this hierarchy:
    Initiative>Epics>Stories, Tasks>Subtasks.

    Actually, that’s something Structure can already help you with!

    Structure allows creating hierarchies using existing relationships between issues in Jira. If there is a link between two issues, Structure can visualize the relationships in the parent-child form, putting one issue above the other.

    You just need to use standard Jira link functionality which is available in any Jira version by default – the ‘blocks’, ‘implements’, etc type of a link. You can configure them at Settings | issues | Issue linking and create links between issues using the Link option on any Issue Page.

    And once links exist between Initiative and Epics, then you can build your structure with the desired hierarchy the following way:

    1. Create a structure.
    2. Click Automation | + | Insert and type a JQL query to match all Initiatives that you want to add.
    3. Then click + | Extend | Linked Items and…

  9. Group by Due Date

    I need to be able to group by Due Date, so that we can see the progress of all items assigned to a particular date. It seems like this may have been solved in server but not in cloud.

  10. Progress by status category

    Currently progress by status is supported(among other statuses).

    To simplify configuration in complicated jira setups it would be nice if one could filter by status category. Instead or in combination.

  12. It would be nice if you could change the colour for different types of links

    Would it be possible to somehow recognize different types of links in the structure? e.g. add an icon for issues which are linked by "is blocked by" or change the colour of the blocking ticket.

  13. Open issues in Jira search view

    It would be helpful if you could open a folder, sub-folder or a grouping, within your structure, in the Jira search view pre-populated with the issues in folder. This would allow you to easily share specific issues in your structure with relevant engineers so that they don't have to find the issues themselves within your structure.

    Examples:
    Create a sub-folder and insert issues using JQL. Open all the issues in that sub folder, in a Jira search view. From the Jira search, you can easily share with team members.

    Thank you for the suggestion. As I understand, you want to share issues from the structure somehow, right?

    There is the “Sharing a Perspective” feature in Structure for Jira On-Premise. It allows you to focus a specific folder or select some issues and share this view with others in the form of a permanent link.

    Would this feature solve your problem if we migrate it to Structure Cloud? You can read more about it in our wiki https://wiki.almworks.com/display/structure/Sharing+a+Perspective

  14. Usage logs (cloud)

    As an admin, I'd like to see more than who owns a structure, I'd like to know how often it is used (accessed, changes, number of users or permissions settings. It would help with maintenance and upkeep of structures over time. Additionally it seems DC/Server has ability to view history which would be nice, that is not available in cloud

  15. Tempo Hours in Structure: Budget (planning) - Actuals (logged) - ETC (remaining)

    As a Project manager, it's handy if the hours are visible in Mandays or Hours to check the financials. 3 columns if (not yet already available to see the Tempo Hours in Structure cloud: Budget (planning) - Actuals (logged) - ETC (remaining). And this is for each separate issue type and rolled-up based on hierarchy or grouping. And visible or reported not in weeks but accumulate in mandays and/or hours. Tom

    Hi Tom,

    Thank you for your request.


    I see that you require your columns to be in a specific format.

    But could you please clarify, do you have the Budget (planning) column already or do you want it to be implemented? If you already have the Budget column, is it just a custom field in Jira?


    Thank you,

    Konstantin

  16. Have a structure folder be a Jira component

    Would be great if this could work in 1 or both directions:

    1. When creating a folder, I have the option of pulling a component from my component list (perhaps there could be an option to instantly pull in all existing issues in the component)

    2. Ability to "nominate" a folder as a component (perhaps there could also be the option to add existing and newly added issues from the folder inside the structure to the Jira component)

  17. work logged (in maydays)

    Now the field 'tempo work logged' calculates the time logged in: xW + xD + xH etc. Can you also make time summed as 'x Mandays' or 'x Hours' as calculating in weeks is not easy to calculate a budget. From project management perspective its better to have a start and finish date a.k.a lead time AND the time (hours or days) spent in mandays to very the budget.

  18. Colorize field depending on the value

    Make it possible to colorize a field depending on the value, similar to Wiki Markup for Structure for Server/Data Center.

    I want to use Structure as a dashboard to monitor project status or individual issues. Color indicators quickly highlight the status. Especially a simple green, yellow, and red colorization of the text or the panel can help a lot.

  19. In JIRA Cloud create a saved filter for issues in a structure to be used in boards

    It's easy to collect all the relevant issues from multiple projects into a single structure but it's very difficult to create a JQL filter that contains the same issues to be used in other parts of JIRA.

    As a user of JIRA Cloud I wish to be able to use JQL to search "Issues in Structure (XYZ)" to get all the issues within the XYZ structure

    The functionality that is available in On-Premise Version

    Hi Alex,


    Thank you for your suggestion. 


    Unfortunately, custom JQL functions are not currently supported in Jira Cloud, so migrating S-JQL in its current form is not possible. 


    We are monitoring updates from Atlassian on this matter.

  20. Notes on folders or any other elements

    Could be nice be able to write descriptions/notes on folders and maybe other elements like groups. It would be a way to have a private environment for product owners to discuss about OKRs or any other thing on the panel
