Follow the steps below to create your first timeline.

These four steps will get you started with Project TimeLine. For projects which use Scrum boards - Estimation settings are copied so that the Project TimeLine shows progress in the correct unit (Story Points/ Original Time Estimate/ Issue Count).  For teams which do not use agile boards or use Kanban boards - you may need to review and configure your timeline. For more information see Configure TimeLine according to your management approach.

Step 1: Choose which projects to see on the timeline

  • A TimeLine will be visualized for each project that has issues in the selected Agile Board.   

  • Open (or create if needed) an Agile board which contains the issues of these projects

Step 2: Choose which Epics Bars would you like to see

  • On the timeline will be shown all Epics that are visible on the selected agile board


Step 3: Open your timeline

  • Navigate and open the Agile Board which contains the scope (Projects & Epics) you want to see on the timeline 

  • Click on Project TimeLine

  • Timeline works with Scrum, Kanban and projects without board

Step 4: Choose your Persona

  • Next Steps as Scrum Master (Sprint / Epic level planning)
  • Next Steps as Project Manager (cross team/ project Release planning)
  • Next Steps as High Level Manager (only reporting and visibility)
