BE: Add status widget to issues
Issues and epics are part of the GA release for custom status. So we need to add the status widget for these types.
We want to dogfood status only on tasks, so we need to ensure the widget is not visible for issues~~ and epics~~.
Update: We decided not to include epics right now. It depends on a) capacity and b) the state of new work item boards.
Proposal
-
Eitherintroduce a new feature flagwork_item_status_on_tasks
or reuse theto guard all code paths that are required for system-defined status on tasks. It's important to note that thework_items_beta
FFwork_item_status_feature_flag
should not be enabled to use status on tasks. See separate issue for this Move task-related functionality under work_item... (#541079 - closed) - Add the status widget to issues
- Regardless of license and FF, add the initial status on item creation and perform transitions when the state changes. Handled with BE: Set Status automatically for open/close/dup... (#498394 - closed)
- Backfill status for open issues~~ and epics~~. Handled with BE: Backfill status data for the existing work ... (#498395)
