How do I Bulk Edit LinkedIssues?

[SHEHZADALI ISMAILY]

My use case: Looking to bulk edit all issues that have a linked issue type of “blocks” to “depends on”.

Native Jira functionality does not allow for bulk editing the linkedissuetype field.

Only thing I can think of is running a filter to identify all the “blocks” tickets, do an export out of Jira to CSV, and then import back into Jira with “blocks” updated to “depends on”.

I’m always nervous with the export/import approach but can’t think of anything else.

Anyone know of an alternate way?

Hi @SHEHZADALI ISMAILY 

Unfortunate this is your only option.

The is no such option in the API as well, only create or delete.

There is an open request for this, see; JRACLOUD-2428
