Create dependencies

Create dependencies

You can create a dependency in the following ways:

1. Click on the dot next to the taskbar and drag&drop it on the target task, or drop to the dependency dot of the target task. When you hover over a dependency dot or a taskbar of the target task, both dot and half of a taskbar pulsate. 

2. Click the dot that appears next to the taskbar when you hover over the task with the mouse.

3. Create dependencies directly on a Jira issue page.

4. Right-click on a task and choose "Create dependency".

5. Mark a task and click on three dots (make sure that the "Editor Slider" is enabled under the "View" menu). Next, choose "Create dependency".
