Hi, 

I'm trying to polish our Kanban board, organize it into couple of swimlines. I'd like subtasks to be displayed in the correct swimlines too. Previously, we were using a function called:

havingParentIssuesFromQuery(Filter)

This was when we were having older JIRA version on our server. Then we moved to Cloud and this function is no longer available. 

Is there an equivalent? 

Thanks,

Martin

Hey, looks like you had this plugin installed on your server and it doesn't have cloud version. There's indeed no out of box method to achieve it, but different plugins have different methods, eg scriptrunner can do similar with

issueFunction in subtasksOf(“project=CODE and summary ~ ‘some string’“)

basically, find out what plugins you have and dig through theirs documentations

The high level task is, to have Sub-Tasks displayed in correct swimline in Kanban board. Say there is a swimline that displays issues with "some string" in summary. Our query for that looked like this:

summary ~ “some string” OR issue in havingParentIssuesFromQuery(“project=CODE and summary ~ ‘some string’“)

It included even sub-tasks that don't have 'some string' in the summary and displayed it in the swimline. It worked in older version of JIRA, but since we moved to the latest in the Cloud, it is not available any more.

The workaround is to just include the 'some string' even in summary of the sub-task, but it would be great if we can have it as before.
