[Structure plugin] Schedule whole tree of issues to a Sprint

[Pavel Antonenko]

When we plan sprints in Jira Agile, we need possibility to add whole hierarchy of issues after a parent issue is scheduled to a Sprint. Hieararchy is stored in Structure plugin. Is it possible somehow?

Pavel, I don't think this is possible with the current version, sorry. There's an open feature request for a more general feature "propagate a value down the hierarchy" - https://jira.almworks.com/browse/HJ-164 - I think when it is implemented, it will be possible to propagate the value of "Sprint" field as well, subject to configuration.

Edit: What you can do with the current version is to check - for example, which sub-issues are under scheduled parent issues, but are not scheduled themselves. You'll need to use S-JQL for that - https://wiki.almworks.com/x/dIPE - the JQL query will be something like:

issue in structure("structure name", "[sprint is empty] and descendant of [sprint is not empty]")

Hope this helps!

Kind regards,
Igor

Do you need sub-issues automatically scheduled to the same sprint?

Yep, I need this option. But should be configurable somehow, if I want to add part of sub-issues to a sprint. Is it possible?

Do you need sub-issues automatically scheduled to the same sprint? Or do you need sub-issues to be added to the Agile board after the parent issue is scheduled?
