How to group tasks to proposed by Jira labels? What do Jira labels suggest for?

[Kristina]

There are some default Jira labels (FEATURE, RETENTION,UX,VALUE ETC.). How does Jira propose to group tasks according to that labels? What all these labels are stand for?

Welcome to the community, @Kristina 

Any user can create labels to add keywords to issues. You can use labels to search and report on issues flexibly.

If the default labels aren't useful to your company, you can make your own. The danger here is that the project can end up with numerous variations, e.g., documented vs Documentation_Done. Users should look for existing labels before creating a new one.

Don't use labels where another feature exists. For example, don't use labels to assign an issue to an epic.

I've used the Colored Label Manager add-on in the past, which I think is an improvement if you want to spend the money.

Hi @Kristina , 

I agree with @Jim Knepley - ReleaseTEAM ,  Colored Label Manager is a fantastic tool for organizing and managing labels across projects. Its intuitive setup and customization options make it easy to track efforts with visual clarity.  it helps you to structure your tasks on Jira , also you can use field as labels (Anyone can add new label) or as a select list (Only project admin can add new labels) , the plugin comes also with 3 built-in reports based on labels .
