We are hoping to utilize the Lucid x Jira integration as a replacement tool for a Jira add-on called Easy Agile that a lot of Application Development Organizations within our community use for their PI planning. One feature of Easy Agile that doesn’t seem to be replicable in the current Lucid x Jira integration is parent-child linking and dependency linking.
Although you can draw dependency lines in Easy Agile, they do not update Jira dependency links. This requires scrum masters and teams to go into Jira to update the dependency links that they have mapped as part of their PI planning.
Secondly, Easy Agile allows you to display the hierarchy of parent and child Jira issues. You can filter down to show only the child issues of the feature or epic you have selected. Lucid does not have this ability to differentiate between parent and child issues within a Lucid board.
One of the great aspects of the Lucid Jira integration is that it allows Scrum Masters to use one tool for PI planning and have the stories automatically update on the Jira side, rather than manually updating Jira stories. It would be a great organizational benefit and time-saver to have this ability for Jira issue links and Parent/Epic Links as well.
