Add an issue to an epic

To add an existing issue, drag and drop the issue onto the epic in the 'EPICS' panel.

Remove an issue from an epic

Drag and drop the issue onto Issues without epics in the 'EPICS' panel.

Alternatively, view the detailed view of the issue on the board, locate the Epic field, then click the 'x' in the epic name lozenge (this method also works in the Active sprints of a board).

Filter issues by epic

Click the epic in the 'EPICS' panel to show only issues in that epic. Click All issues to remove the filter. Alternatively, click Clear all filters next to the sprint's name.

Complete an epic

Click the arrow next to the epic's name, then choose Mark as Done from the menu. This will set the epic's Epic Status field to "Done", but will not affect the epic's workflow or its Status field, and none of the epic's issues will be affected.
