Create swimlanes for your board
A swimlane is a horizontal grouping of work items on a board. You can use swimlanes to help you categorize work items based on request types or assignees.
You must be a Jira admin, project admin or board admin to create swimlanes.
Queues
Go to the queue with the board to which you’d like to add a swimlane.
Select More actions (), then Edit queue.
Under the Board heading, select Swimlanes.
From the Select method dropdown list, select your desired method.
Views
Select Configure views () at the top right of the page.
Select Swimlanes, then follow the instructions in step 4 above.
If you select Assignee, swimlanes will be created based on the people assigned to work items. If you select Request type, swimlanes will be created based on the request types of the work items on your board.
