Implement "Sticky Filters" in the Timeline view to retain active filters when navigating away

XMLWordPrintable

      Problem Description

      Currently, when a user applies filters (such as Assignee, Epic, Type, or Label) on the Timeline view of a project, these filters are lost if the user navigates to another view (e.g., Kanban board, List view, or Backlog) and then returns to the Timeline.

      Unlike the Boards and List views, which often retain filter states via browser session/local storage, the Timeline view resets to its default state every time it is accessed. This causes significant friction for users who need to re-apply the same filters repeatedly throughout their workday.

      Steps to Replicate

      1. Open a Jira Software Cloud project and navigate to the Timeline view.
      1. Apply a filter (e.g., select a specific Assignee or Issue Type from the dropdowns).
      1. Navigate to the Kanban board or List view within the same project.
      1. Navigate back to the Timeline view.

      Expected Result

      The filters previously selected in the Timeline view should remain active (Sticky Filters).

      Actual Result

      The filters are reset, and the Timeline shows all issues by default.

      Workaround

      No actual workaround. Users must manually re-select and re-apply all filters every time they return to the Timeline view.
