Show or hide dependencies on your timeline

To check whether you’re in a software or business project, select More actions (•••) next to the project name in either the header or the sidebar. At the bottom of the menu that opens, your project details will be shown.

Dependencies, also called Work item links in other parts of Jira, allow you to show the order in which work items need to be done. If there’s a dependency between two work items, one must be finished before the next can begin.

In order to use this feature, a Jira admin needs to enable work item linking. The timeline can only show work items with the Blocks work item link type and link work items from a single project. How to enable work item linking

To show or hide dependencies on your timeline:

  1. From your timeline, navigate to the View settings menu at the top-right of your view.

  2. Under the Visual details heading, enable Dependencies.
