Choose Dependency Types

In this tab we can specify the ‘Issue Types' (e.g. Story, Epic) and the ‘Issue Link Types' (e.g. Relates to, Block) that are included in the final result.

e.g. If you were only interested in dependencies captured as a Story or Bug that were blocking other projects, you would deselect all options except for the Story and Bug issue types and the Blocks issue link type.

Note: The list of issue types and issue link types is generated by reading the metadata in your Jira instance, so they will likely be different to the example shown.

Select Your Preferred Issue Types and Issue Link Types

Fine-tune your dependency visualisation using the Select Issue Types and Select Issue Link Types filters on the Home page. These dynamic controls automatically populate with all the issue and link types found in your search results, letting you customise your view without running a new query.

Issue Types

Select Issue Types shows you every type of issue present in your data set, such as Stories, Bugs, Tasks or Epics. Simply tick or untick these options to show or hide specific issue types from your chart. This helps you focus on particular work items or eliminate noise from your visualisation.

Issue Link Types

Select Issue Link Types works similarly, displaying all the relationship types that exist between your issues, like 'blocks', 'is blocked by', 'relates to' or custom link types your team has created. By selecting different link types, you can explore specific dependency relationships or streamline your view to show only the most relevant connections.
