Advanced Search JQL issueLinkType

[Callum McClean]

Using a Jira Cloud instance when use JQL such as issueLinkType, I get the following error: Field 'issueLinkType' does not exist or you do not have permission to view it.

Does anybody know how to resolve this?

It appears this functionality isn't available in Cloud yet (see https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-25640)

However, you can achieve the same using the ScriptRunner add-on

Hi Calum,

Thank you for your question.

I can confirm that when using Jira Cloud that you can search for issues which use a specific link type by installing ScriptRunner for Jira Cloud and using the JQL Aliases Feature that it provides.   

Once installed you will then be able to use the IssueLinkType alias to search for issues which have a certain link type. 

If this answer has solved your issue can you please accept it in order to mark this answer as correct for users who are searching for a similar issue.
