How to query issues recursively

[Griffin Hood]

I am trying to write the JQL to find ALL issues for a particular assignee including epics, stories, tasks, and sub-tasks, and bugs. However, I am unable to query these issues recursively. For example, an assignee has 1 Epic assigned to him which has a bug and 2 tasks inside of it. When I try to query all issues assigned to this person, it only shows the Epic and not the nested tasks or bugs. Is there a way to write this query to show everything and not just the parent?

Hi Griffin - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Who are the issues assigned to in the non-Epics cards?

That was the answer right there. The sub-tasks were not assigned to the same user. My mistake. Thank you!
