Plan tasks

On the roadmap, you can plan and schedule tasks—such as Goals, Epics, Stories, and Subtasks—directly on the timeline. This helps your team visualize when work will happen and how everything fits together.

Viewing Task Details

Each item on the roadmap shows key information:

  • Goals: Name and status (plus issue type and key if Goal Mapping is enabled)

  • Epics and Stories: Issue type, key, name, status, and assignee

Click any issue key to open a details panel for more information.

How to Plan Tasks

Hover over the timeline in the roadmap view. A green dot will appear where you want to start your task.

Click and drag across the timeline to set the start and end dates for your task.

The planned task will appear as a bar on the timeline.

Alternatively, click on the timeline at the desired position and drag to adjust the duration.

You can also drag and drop issues from the backlog or the Issues without Epics list onto the roadmap to schedule them.

Editing Plans

To edit a planned task, right-click on it to open the edit menu. Here, you can:

  • Change the task’s color

  • Clear the plan

  • Remove the start or due date

Map roadmap dates with Jira fields

You can sync your roadmap dates with Jira’s date fields for seamless integration.

  • In Admin Settings, enable the option to map roadmap dates with Jira fields.

  • Select which Jira date/time fields to link with your roadmap’s start and end dates.

  • Make sure the selected fields are configured for each issue type in your Jira project.

  • Once set up, any changes to dates on the roadmap will automatically update the corresponding Jira fields, and vice versa.

→ See: Field Settings for more details.

This integration ensures your roadmap and Jira issues stay in sync, making it easier to manage project timelines, track progress, and keep everyone aligned.
