Jira tasks

Meet the new BigPicture navigation

A faster, smarter, and more intuitive way to work is here. We’ve redesigned BigPicture navigation to give you a smoother experience and better access to what matters most.

→ Discover what’s new, explore key improvements, and review feature name updates on the New navigation page.

→ The rollout will happen gradually, and the previous navigation will be retired in September 2026.

Jira tasks

You can create Jira tasks in BigPicture and add the existing ones to a box.

Connecting a Jira project to BigPicture automatically imports and syncs your existing Jira work items, including Epics, Stories, Tasks, and Bugs. Updates made in Jira—such as status changes or due date updates —are reflected in BigPicture and the other way around.

Once imported or created, you can manage Jira tasks through various modules:

Scope module

  • Displays issues in a hierarchical structure (for example, Epic → Story → Sub-task).

  • Enables you to group, filter, and reorganize tasks for improved visibility.

  • Allows adding custom hierarchy levels (for example, Initiative → Epic → Story).
