Milestones

What are milestones?

Milestones are a way of organizing issues in Huly. They can be used to group issues together based on a common theme, project, or timeline. For example, you might create a milestone for a specific feature release, a sprint, or a project phase. Milestones can be used to track progress, set deadlines, and ensure that issues are completed in a logical order.

Creating a new milestone

Navigate to the Tracker and select Milestones under any project. Then, click the + Milestone button in the top right corner. From here, you can enter a name and optional description for your Milestone, and set a status and deadline.

Adding issues to a milestone

Creating a new issue within a milestone

There are a few ways to add issues to a milestone. If you haven’t create the issue yet, simply click the + button on the details page for any milestone. This will allow you to create a new issue that will be automatically linked to that milestone.

Alternatively, when creating a new issue from anywhere else in the tracker, simply select the desired milestone from the dropdown menu in the issue creation dialog:

Linking an existing issue to a milestone

If you’ve already created an issue and want to link it to an existing milestone, you can open the details page for that issue and select the desired milestone from the right sidebar:

Add an issue to a milestone from the issue view

Alternatively, you could right-click on the issue in your tracker to open the context menu, and select a milestone from there:

Using milestones to sort issues

Like any other issue attribute, milestones can be used to filter and sort issues in the Tracker. For example, you can toggle whether or not you want to see the milestone for each issue in your Tracker, or you can customize your entire Tracker view by organizing issues by milestone.

Issues can also be filtered by milestone, allowing you to quickly see all of the issues related to a selection of milestones.
