I want to find all linked issues in my project to OTHER projects on the same JIRA server

RJ LeMaster June 9, 2020

I have a project "PROJECT123".  I have multiple issues within this project that have links (Depends on) another project "XYZPROJECT".  I want to be able to write a query that returns to me all the issues in my project (123) with "Depends On" links to the sister project (XYZ).  I've found nothing to date that answers this specific use case.

Hi Rj_LeMaster,

If you are on Jira 8.x you can use issueLinkType field as Jack already pointed out on their comment. However this not warranty that the link pointed to a issue on the XYZPROJECT in any way, only that the issue on PROJECT123 has this kind of link.

 

Sadly you cannot achieve the desired search using standard features on Jira, you must go for a third-party app instead. Using i.e. JQL Booster Pack you can type the following:

 

1) Find all linked issues on ProjectA which depends on issues of ProjectB

project = ProjectA AND issue IN linkedIssuesOf( 'project = ProjectB', 'dependent of' )

(*) Note that this is just an example, you must tune above query to fit your needs.

 

Using this app you can also query other issues relations, check:

So, if I can summarize: unless I can convince a giant, monolithic bank to purchase this "JQL Booster Pack", there's no way to do what I'm asking?  I pretty much figured this was gonna be the case.  I was hoping that the ScriptRunner package might have this hidden away somewhere I didn't know about.  Thanks anyway though!

This or another app of this kind, but yes there is no way to do it out of the box.

Hi RJ, welcome to the Community. Can you see if this gives you what you want? I'm unsure if Server has the "issuelinktype" function TBH.

project = project123 AND issueLinkType = "Depends on"

Thanks, but no joy.
