      Hello all,

      Swimlane grouping is now available across all Business boards in both team-managed and company-managed spaces!

      You'll also notice that we've added two group-by fields:

      • Group by Epic (or parent)
      • Group by Subtask

      What's out of scope:

      • Custom or JQL-based swimlanes - we are exploring bringing this in a future update.

      You can read further details about it (including how to get in touch with our team or raise feedback) in our community post.

      Thank you all for your patience, we know this was a long-standing request.

      Cheers,
      Peter Oh
      Product Manager

      As a Jira Software user, I want to be able to configure swimlanes on next-gen boards, as it is possible to configure in Jira Software classic projects.

      This feature helps to distinguish tasks of different categories, such as workstreams, users, application areas, etc.
