How to direct link a board for the current iteration?

General
1

Is there a way to directly link (or bookmark) a board in the current iteration? We’re using a cadence, but the link with ?iteration_id=Current somehow automatically adds another &iteration_id which is - in our case - a previous and thus empty iteration. We then need to manually add the current iteration in the query field to get to the right board.

Is this a bug, or are we misunderstanding the best way to link to the iteraction board?

Seems related to (but not completely the same as): When board scope is scoped to current iteration, it cannot handle logic when adding another iteration (#348130) · Issues · GitLab.org / GitLab · GitLab

Hello,

I just have a similar issue, I would like to be able to directly link a board in project multi issue board setup and found that the boards ID are not in my URL.

https://gitlab.exemple.net/mygroup/project1/-/boards?author_username=me

Is there something to have the board ID in the URL?

I needed to look in my Firefox network tool console to see the graphQL information:

{
	"variables": {
		"boardId": "gid://gitlab/Board/1435",
		"filters": {
			"not": {}
		},
		"fullPath": "mygroup/project1",
		"isGroup": false,
		"isProject": true
	}
}

I’m using self-hosted Gitlab 17.3.1 CE.

Regards.

Great find! I’ve also seen that there is a GraphQL response that shows all boards of a project, incl. their ID.

Interestingly, it will be possible to amend these IDs to the /boards URL fragment in the form of /{id} and have GitLab load the desired board directly.

This information/link could be surfaced to the user in the interface. But maybe that’s a separate discussion, to not deviate too far from the OP.
