How to Show the Subtasks in Jira

Updated on:

Use this interactive demo to learn how to display subtasks grouped by issue and status in Jira.

Quick summary

Jira's Group by Subtask feature lets you display subtasks on your board organized by their parent issue and status. Accessing it takes just two clicks via the Group menu in the top-right corner of your Jira board.


Steps

  1. In your Jira space, go to the top-right corner of the board and click the Group menu.
  2. Select Subtask from the list of grouping options.
  3. Your subtasks will now be displayed on the board organized by their respective parent issue and status.

📌 Why this matters

Seeing subtasks clearly on your Jira board is essential for tracking granular work within larger issues. The Group by Subtask feature surfaces child tasks directly on the board view, eliminating the need to open each issue individually. This improves sprint visibility, helps teams spot blockers faster, and keeps everyone aligned on task-level progress. For agile teams managing complex projects, this is a quick configuration that delivers immediate planning clarity.
