Work Item Table
The work item table displays up to 50 items from your JQL. To see more, click the load more button at the table's bottom. Items appear in the correct hierarchy. For example, the JQL search returns MC-43, MC-44, MC-45, and MC-48. MC-44, MC-45, and MC-48 are child items under MC-43 and display accordingly.
-
In the example, work item MOBL-4 has child items. Click the expand icon to load, display, and copy all child items, even if they fall outside the initial JQL scope.
-
MC-43 has more child items than the three shown in the JQL. Click the load more children icon to display all child items in the table.
