Hi @SunadhRaj.Malaka 

Is the child linked to the parent using linked issues? Or using the standard parent fields - i.e Parent Link, Epic Link, etc.

---

If it's linked issues, double-check the link type is correct. You can check if it's working without the specified link type - i.e...

issue in linkedIssues("ABC-224")

---

If it's standard parent fields, use this JQL instead...

issue in childIssuesOf("ABC-224")

Hi @SunadhRaj.Malaka,
Maybe the link type name is not correct. Have you tried some more generic, like:

issue in linkedIssues("abc-224") 

 I hope that helps.
