FAQ & troubleshooting

How is a Task Hub different from a Jira board?

Section titled “How is a Task Hub different from a Jira board?”

Jira boards come with the space type and are limited to one per space in most team-managed and business spaces. You can create any number of Task Hubs in any space type, scope them across spaces, and switch each one between Board, List, Calendar, Timeline and Summary. Task Hubs don’t change your Jira boards.

Does Task Hub work with Jira Service Management?

Section titled “Does Task Hub work with Jira Service Management?”

Yes. Task Hubs work in JSM spaces, and you can group and color requests by request type.

Does Task Hub work in team-managed spaces?

Section titled “Does Task Hub work in team-managed spaces?”

Yes. It works in both company-managed and team-managed spaces.

Jira admins and space admins. They can then make others Administrators of a specific Task Hub. See Access & roles.

I don’t see Task Hub in my space sidebar

Section titled “I don’t see Task Hub in my space sidebar”
  • Check the space’s Apps menu. Some layouts put app pages there.
  • Ask your Jira admin to confirm that Task Hub is installed and enabled in Settings › Apps › Manage apps.

It was deleted, or it’s private and you’re not a member. Ask a Task Hub administrator to add you.

  • Check the filters and quick filters in the toolbar, and clear them.
  • Check the Task Hub’s scope JQL.
  • On the Board, check for statuses in Unmapped. Those work items are hidden. See Columns.
  • You only see work items you have permission to browse in Jira.

Your workflow might not have a transition from the card’s current status to any status in that column, or you might not have permission to transition it. Try the same move in Jira to confirm.

The quick filter’s JQL is invalid for some of the spaces in scope, for example because it uses a custom field that only exists in one space. Ask an admin to fix it in Configure › Quick Filters.

These preferences are saved in your browser. They reset if you clear site data, use a private window or switch browsers.

The Summary is slow on a very large Task Hub

Section titled “The Summary is slow on a very large Task Hub”

Summary charts are calculated from every work item in scope. Narrow the scope JQL, for example by excluding items resolved long ago, to speed it up:

resolution = EMPTY OR resolved >= -90d
