Finding child epics in list of Sagas

[Siwei Tang]

I have a list of Sagas that I've queried based on a set of labels and created a filter. I'd like to create a filter that shows up the child Epics associated to the list of Sagas. Is there a way to do that?

Hello @Siwei Tang 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

If you have only native Jira filtering capabilities available, you cannot get what you want. 

Do you have any third party apps that extend the filtering capabilities of Jira?

This search from the Atlassian Marketplace is a partial list of such apps.

We have the Rich Filter app

I did not phrase that question properly, I think.

Do you have any third party apps that extend the capabilities of issue searching (i.e add more options to use in JQL) in Jira?

The Rich Filters app does not appear to help in that regard, though I am not well versed in that specific app.

JQL Search Extensions, for example, provides a childrenOfIssuesInQuery() function that gets the children of issues that you have specified with a subquery.

ScriptRunner Enhanced Search has a similar function:
