Is it possible to map Epic fix version/s from Jira with Octane field (list)?

Hello the community,

Epics in Jira have a Fix Version/s  equivalent of the Octane release.

Epics in Octane cannot be associated to a Release.

Is it possible to map between Octane and Jira Epics  an Octane field listing all the possible releases of a project with the Epic fix version/s from Jira?

Note: the octane list field  allows multi values which mean that I would like to synch multi value field list with jira fix version

Thanks

Guillaume

MF Connect 4.4.153

ALM Octane: 16.0.200.101 (enterprise)

Jira: v8.20.5

    Hi Guillame,

    Yes, you need to map the Octane Epic to the Jira Epic.

    you also need to map the Octane Release to the Jira Release.

    you'd need to add a custom string field to the Octane Epic, and map the Jira fix/versions to this custom string field.

    uni-directionally, meaning - from jira to octane.

    once you do that, the jira fix versions will sync over to the string field.

    if you run into issues, please feel free to open a support incident, and email me with the incident number.

    i'll set up a call with you at your convenience.

    take care

    Hi Anil,

    thank you very much for the quick feedback.

    In my case the fix version/s of my Epic may have multi releases values. That's why I was thinking to map an Octane field list with multi values.

    Which means multiple combinations of releases.

    Is this possible?

    Thanks

    I do not know. you can give it a try.

    i do see that you are on MF Connect 4.4.

    we released 4.4.1 last year, we release 4.4.2 in 2 weeks.

    you may want to upgrade

    Octane release reference field and Jira fix version/s field allow multi values.

    For example:

    Epic Fix Version/s = V1.0, V2.0, V8.0 (we are expecting iterations of this epic for the fix version V1.0 , V2.0 and V8.0)

    It is possible to map this when we map the fix version/s field with the Octane release reference field (both allow multi values).

    But for the Epic without the release field I don't know what is possible to do.

    Thanks

    Hi Anil,

    Happy to setup a call (available the whole day).

    For info, I opened a case (ticket) and I was planning to update this discussion when the ticket will be closed.

    Note: I also realised that the synch of Jira fix version/s with Octane Release for the features for example do not work when we apply multi values in Jira side because only a single choice can be applied on the Feature release in Octane side.

    A contrario the Octane release for Requirements allows multi values.
