You need a board so that you can view and work with issues in GreenHopper. A displays issues from one or more projects. You can either use a  that someone else has created, or create a new  for yourself. You can create as many s as you like.

There are two types of GreenHopper boards:

• Scrum boards are for teams that plan their work in sprints.
• Kanban boards are for teams that focus on managing and constraining their work-in-progress. Because work is not planned in advance using discrete time periods or versions, Kanban boards are visible in Work mode but not in Plan mode.

Before you begin, please note that you will need the JIRA 'Create Shared Objects'  before you can create a . If you don't have this permission you can still create a board, but it will not be visible to other people as its filter will not be shared.

You can either copy an existing board, or create a completely new one.

Creating a Completely New Board

1. Log into JIRA.
   If you are on the GreenHopper Getting Started page, simply click either Create a new board or Create a new project and board, then select (or create) a project, type the name of your new board — and you're done! Otherwise, please continue:
2. 
3. Select Create from the Tools ('cog') menu at the top-right of the page.
4. 次のいずれかを実行します。
   
   • To create a Scrum board:
     

     • Click Select Scrum on the Presets tab (see Screenshot 1 below). You will be prompted to enter the name of your new , select the project(s) you wish to view, and select what type of workflow to use (Simplified Workflow is recommended).
        This will create a preconfigured Scrum board containing all the issues in your chosen project(s). Your Scrum board will have a JIRA filter with the following query:

       project = "[YOUR PROJECT(S)]" ORDER BY Rank ASC

       または

   • To create a Kanban board:
     

     • Click Select Kanban on the Presets tab (see Screenshot 1 below). You will be prompted to enter the name of your new , select the project(s) you wish to view, and select what type of workflow to use (Simplified Workflow is recommended).
        This will create a preconfigured Kanban board containing all the issues in your chosen project(s) that do not belong to a released version (see the JIRA documentation on ). Your Kanban board will have a JIRA filter with the following query:

       project = "[YOUR PROJECT(S)]" AND (fixVersion in unreleasedVersions() OR fixVersion is EMPTY) ORDER BY Rank ASC

       または

   • To create a Kanban board that is based on a query of your own choosing:
      Before you can do this, you must have access to at least one saved JIRA filter (either your own filter, or one that someone else has shared with you). If you don't, first create and save a new filter in JIRA (you may want to see the documentation on and ).
     
     • Click the Advanced tab (see Screenshot 2 below).
     • 'Saved Filter' — Select the  to be used by this  (see some examples below).
        If a colleague has not shared their saved filter with you, that filter will not be available for you to choose in this field.
     • 'Shares' shows which groups or projects roles have access to the currently selected saved filter. Your new  will be available to all users who have access to your chosen filter.
     • Click the 'Edit Filter' link if you wish to alter the JIRA filter's query. (You will only be able to do this if you are the owner of the JIRA filter. If you are not, then the owner's name will be shown instead of the 'Edit Filter' link.)

Note that you cannot change the board type after creation (that is, a Scrum board cannot become a Kanban board, and vice versa).
