Summary

In this chapter, we looked at what issues are in Jira and explored the basic operations of creating, editing, and deleting issues. We also looked at the advanced operations offered by Jira to enhance how you can manipulate and use issues, such as adding attachments, creating sub-tasks, and linking multiple issues. We then looked at how we can create our own issue types and apply them to projects so the issues we create will better represent the type of tasks we have.

In the next chapter, we will look at fields and how we can create our own custom fields to capture additional information from users.
