Thanks for the fast reply. I have also received an email in February same as this comment on community forum:
Changes to epics on your board and backlog …
- The name of the epic on the board and backlog will now use the epic’s Issue summary.
… These changes are due to roll out on March 22nd, 2023.
So, it seems to me, since March 22nd, 2023 the Epic Name would become almost useless in UI, but still required field? Or, these changes will make Epic Name optional, too? (I.e. is that the release you have mentioned in the coming month or two?)
