Filter epics

The advanced filter mechanism allows you to easily find what you're looking for. You can apply filters to the epics or the items in an epic. There are two types of filters: Quick and Custom filters. Quick filters are the in-built filters that are based on the various attributes of projects. Whereas, custom filters equip you with AND/OR conditions to create your own criteria pattern. You can save the filter criteria and reuse them to avoid the rework. Click here to learn all about filters.
To filter:
  1. Go to the Epic module.
  2. Click the filter icon at the top.
  3. Select Epic or Work Items. Selecting epic provides you with quick filter criteria based on the epic attributes whereas work item provides quick filters based on item attributes.
  4. Select Quick or Custom filter.
  5. Select built-in filter criteria or define your custom criteria.
  6. Apply the filter to view the epics or work items matching that filter criteria.
