Blocked and Dependent

[Subramaniam Dasari]

If my 1st task is blocked for some reason, then can i put the 2nd task which is related to 1st one as dependent

Hi @Subramaniam Dasari 

As YY哥 mentioned, you can use issue linking to specify the dependency between two issues, where you say that issue 2 is blocked by issue 1.

By default the blocked by link is setup on Jira cloud and you should be able to access issue links as shown below: 

Hope that helps.

Hi @Subramaniam Dasari 

Welcome to our Community.

I think you could link the 2nd taks to the 1st one with the link type of "is blocked by".

Thanks,

@Subramaniam Dasari -

Welcome to the community.  As suggested by two other participants, it is straight forward to link two issues via issue links setup.  It is a default functionality out of the box without any need to configure.  

You can click on the following icon when viewing an issue in the project UI

In the dropdown option - select "Link issues" option.

Hope this helps.

Best, Joseph Chung Yin
