Jira’s Components page shows a summary of all components (if any have been created) in a project. You can search for components by text contained within the component’s name or description. To browse a project’s components: Choose Projects and select a starred or recent project, or choose View all projects and select a project.
Another common question is “How do I Manage components in a JIRA project?”.
Only project admins and Jira admins can manage components. You can access Components, from your project’s sidebar. The Components page allows you to add, edit or delete components in your project. For each component in your project, the following details will be displayed: To add a new component: Select Create component.
Jira projects should reflect real-life projects, where everything is part of something bigger and everything has some smaller parts. That’s why the lack of hierarchy creates a large area for improvements and extensions, including Subcomponents for Jira.
How do I find a specific issue in Jira?
Within the hierarchy, Jira users can easily find issues at any level or depth. It makes it easy to find all the issues that make up one aspect of a component of a product, but with the structure of components. It’s just one small JQL query “component in subcomponents (project. Key, component)”.
A common question we ran across in our research was “What is issue organization in Jira?”.
The core of issue organization in Jira is the project. Projects are the highest level containers for issues in Jira. Your Jira projects should reflect real projects or teams at your company. Projects can be small, but commonly they are huge, with hundreds or thousands of issues. That’s why it’s necessary to get into more fine-grained grouping data.
For example, Mike is an expert on Graph. QL, so we use Jira to auto assign all issues with the Graph. QL component to Mike. Components can be added as your project permissions are established.
How do I view existing components in a project?
Once you’ve added at least one component, a new Components item will appear in the project sidebar. There, you and your team can view existing components and the issues that have that component.
How do I use the components page?
