Hi, my team is using the table configuration that can also show a kanban board view but I can’t convert those lines to Jira Issues and even when I update the view to kanban, I don’t see the option to “convert to” for those cards the way I can convert stickies and the actual “cards” Am I missing something? I want to convert cards from kanban and/or table view into Jira issues but I don’t see that option.

For clarification, I have permissions, am a Jira admin and can convert stickies and regular cards, but want to be able to see the option for the kanban cards and it just isn’t there…. Thanks!

While I can’t assist in the resolution, I would like to add to that this is what my team is trying to accomplish as well.

 

The issue isn’t permissions as I can create a Miro “card” stand alone on the board and convert that to a Jira task.  However the convert option is not available on any cards in the Table/Kanban/Timeline view.

 

One thing to note, a Jira card created elsewhere on the board can be copied to the Table/Kanban/Timeline view and it functions as one would expect.  I say “copied” as dragging and dropping Cards (of Miro, Jira type or otherwise) creates a copy on the those boards.

 

Not to hijack this thread, it would be great if there was a way that Table/Kanban/Timeline could leverage the Planner’s ability to link to a Jira board, and better still if the ability to keep a mix Miro “Cards” and Jira issues in the one view.  This way things could be planned out and escalated to Jira issues as required, saving the backlog from unnecessary clutter.  I know…  Feature request. Sorry. :)

I had the same issue. Cards inside Table, Kanban, or Timeline views simply lack the convert option. It works fine for standalone cards or stickies. You can copy Jira issues in, but not convert out.
