Adding Stories to a Kanban Board
Stories are automatically added to a board based on the
Board Backlog Source. However, you can explicitly create a Story on a board. When you create a Story, it is assigned to the first real lane of
the board after the
Board Backlog lane. The Story does not inherit any data (Sprint/Release/Filter) based on the
Board Backlog Source. Even if the board
Backlog Source changes, the Story will remain on the board.
You can create
Quick or
