Manage Agile Hive Issue Types

 



Introduction

Agile Hive comes with predefined issue types for projects on every SAFe® layer. To easily make your Jira projects SAFe®-friendly, you will need to add the issue types provided by Agile Hive as they adhere to the official framework methodology.

There’s no obligation to use the built-in issue types of Agile Hive. In case your site has well-established issue types already available you can configure them in Agile Hive and still experience the full featureset of the app. Learn more about how to use existing issue types with your projects in Agile Hive here: .

Prerequisites

Make sure you’re logged in with a Jira user holding at least Jira Administrator permission.

Create Agile Hive Issue Types

Navigate to the ‘Apps’ section of global Jira Administration:

Select ‘Agile Hive Administration’ from the left hand sidebar and navigate to the ‘Issue Types’ tab. Agile Hive comes with the issue types listed below:

Since Agile Hive does not automatically generate any Jira entities in your site, you have to explicitly tell the app to generate the built-in issue types. Click the ‘Create Issue Types’ button in order to generate all of the issue types in your Jira site.

You will then receive a notification that the issue types were created and the status for each issue type should be updated from missing to ready.

Troubleshooting

In case one or more issue types cannot be created please make sure that no other issue type with the same name already exists in your Jira site.
