JQL for "Split From" Tasks?

[Linz]

In the project "DMWS," I want to see all Tasks that are "Split From" all Stories within the Epic "DMWS-6976"and order by Status (ascending).

The results would look like this:

Hi @Linz 

To clarify, you want to see:

• Tasks - which are related via a linked issue type of "split from" to...
• Stories - which are the children of...
• An Epic

If this is the case, standard JQL can only search for the first part - there is no parameters for sub-queries.

So searching for the Tasks would be:

issueLinkType = "split from" AND project = DMWS AND issuetype = Task

To take this further and include the sub-query, you'll need more advanced JQL functions through an app - such as Scriptrunner.

Their linked issue functions would allow you to search for the link type and limit the issues to those from stories under the required Epic - for example:

issueFunction in linkedIssuesOf("issuetype = Story AND 'Epic Link' = DMWS-6976", "split from") AND issuetype = Task

 Let us know if this suits your needs!

I have similar questions. 

I would like to find all stories that are in a feature and they are split from this feature. 

It should be something like 

project = X and type = Story and issueLinkType = "split from" 

But where do I type in the feature's key if we don't have/use the advanced plug-in for the advanced jql methods?

Hi @Greta Yamacheva 

This should work:

issue in linkedIssues("ABC-1") and issueLinkType = "split from"

^ ABC-1 is your Feature's issue key.
