00:00:00.300 --> 00:00:01.866
Here's how to plan an epic

00:00:01.866 --> 00:00:03.612
on the timeline in Jira.

00:00:04.062 --> 00:00:06.861
On the Timeline tab, use + Create

00:00:06.861 --> 00:00:09.078
to add a work item.

00:00:09.728 --> 00:00:11.135
Enter the epic name,

00:00:11.135 --> 00:00:12.992
then save it with Create.

00:00:13.642 --> 00:00:15.614
With the new epic now listed

00:00:15.614 --> 00:00:18.033
on the timeline, open Backlog so you

00:00:18.033 --> 00:00:21.106
can connect existing backlog items to it.

00:00:21.806 --> 00:00:23.330
The Backlog view opens

00:00:23.330 --> 00:00:25.862
and the work items list appears.

00:00:27.447 --> 00:00:29.294
In the Backlog list, move

00:00:29.294 --> 00:00:32.308
to the item BRW-6 Cups per location chart

00:00:32.308 --> 00:00:34.965
and open its + Epic field to assign

00:00:34.965 --> 00:00:37.359
that work item to an epic.

00:00:38.009 --> 00:00:41.370
Choose BRW-13 Usage dashboard

00:00:41.370 --> 00:00:43.817
from the list.

00:00:44.517 --> 00:00:47.055
The Usage dashboard epic label appears

00:00:47.055 --> 00:00:49.077
on several backlog items.

00:00:50.200 --> 00:00:51.891
Now that backlog items show

00:00:51.891 --> 00:00:53.931
the Usage dashboard epic label,

00:00:53.931 --> 00:00:55.672
switch to Timeline to return

00:00:55.672 --> 00:00:58.120
to scheduling across the date grid.

00:01:02.126 --> 00:01:03.877
In BRW Sprint 2, start

00:01:03.877 --> 00:01:07.142
the sprint for these epic-linked items.

00:01:09.803 --> 00:01:12.414
Review the sprint setup shown here,

00:01:12.414 --> 00:01:14.799
including BRW Sprint 2, the two-week

00:01:14.799 --> 00:01:17.704
duration, the dates, and the sprint goal,

00:01:17.704 --> 00:01:19.907
then launch it with Start.

00:01:20.607 --> 00:01:22.429
The board opens with the sprint

00:01:22.429 --> 00:01:24.855
items grouped in the workflow columns.

00:01:26.118 --> 00:01:27.606
The sprint board is open

00:01:27.606 --> 00:01:29.766
with your epic-linked work items.
