See more than 3000 work items from a Jira Cloud Business project
Platform Notice: Cloud Only - This article only applies to Atlassian products on the cloud platform.
Summary
Jira Business project boards can only display the first 3000 issues added to the project. Newly created issues beyond 3000 will not display.
We can display more than 3000 issues by leveraging a separate board which returns issues only from our Business project.
Atlassian is tracking interest in removing the 3000 limit. Please refer to: JWMCLOUD-613.
