As you work with a structure, sometimes you may want to reorganize the issues you are seeing, so that you can focus on the most important ones. The simplest example of this is Filtering and Sorting. For example, you may want to see only issues assigned to you sorted by progress.
These are the two examples of the Transformations functionality. With transformations you can locally adjust the structure without changing it for everyone else. All other users will see this structure without these transformations applied.
Available Transformations
Transformations use the same type of functions as generators. The main difference is that the transformations can only be applied to the whole structure (while generators can be inserted under some folder or under a manually added issue) and you cannot use Insert generators as you already have a set of issues to work with. You can use the following transformations:
- Filter
- Sort
- Group
- Extend
For more details on how they work, please check the documentation on Generators.
Note that there is a difference on how filtering by Sprint works in transformations and in generators: transformation filter is applied to the whole structure, while filter generator only to embedded sub-structures.
