Epics for Managers is a powerful Jira plugin designed to streamline project management by providing a comprehensive and visually intuitive report of epics within a Jira project. Utilizing a user-friendly list view, each epic is represented as a card enriched with key details such as summary, description, assignee, status, labels, and due dates. This plugin enhances productivity by offering managers and teams a centralized hub to track epic milestones, identify issues, and make informed decisions, all within the familiar Jira interface.
Access Epics for Managers from the project side panel in the Apps section.
The epics report is automatically displayed in a list. Each epic is displayed in a separate card. 10 epics are displayed initially. The epic card can be customized with more fields by using the Card Designer in the edit mode.
The epic logo is fetched from the 1st image attachment on the epic.
To load more epics into the list click on the "Load more" button at the bottom of the page.
