Really loving the new group-by feature - I’ve got dynamic views by sprint, product, swimlane, etc.
I’m trying now to pull out our release quarters into a new board, so I can set the timeline there, and then link to it from our backlog - that way I’m not setting timelines on individual line items; just set the quarter, and the mirror will pull it in.
But I don’t seem able to group my board using the quarters I’ve mirrored in - am I missing something?
Correct. The new group by feature does not seem to support mirror columns. It also does not support local columns that can hold multiple values in a single cell (like person and dropdown).
A solution for your timeline column (that is supported by group by as lang as it is a local column) is to replace the connect-board / mirror approach by an app like Match Index Column that pulls in the timeline from another board by matching on a “key” column. That app outputs to a local timeline column and that local timeline column can be used with group by.
This feature would add a ton of value to Project Managment use cases such as Sprint, Ticket grooming as well as building quick BI views for meeting and triaging.
