Save your matrix

If you want to save a search query and matrix, you can save your matrix and find it again in the Saved Matrices tab.

Manage permissions:

• 🌎 Visible and editable for every user in the space,

• Visible by every user in the space but only editable by the user who created it,

• 🔒 Visible and editable only by the user who created the matrix.

A few tips

• Remember that you need to be on the correct column to display its data. If you are displaying 3 levels of dependencies and want to add Jira issues from the second level requirements, you will need to go on its column.
