JIRA automatoin for Project and Subtasks

[Sohail Alam]

I have Project ticket : "JIRA automation for the ticket" and Subtasks under the Project

Subtask 1: Testing ticket ABC

Subtask 2: Testing ticket DEF

Subtask 3: Testing ticket GHI

Another Project ticket : "This is a Project" and Subtasks under the Project

Subtask 1: T123

Subtask 2: T456

Subtask 3: T789

Now I want to create a Filter where: Project summary contains JIRA and it`s Subtasks summary is starting from Testing.

Thanks for the help.

Hi Sohail,

As Mercy has mentioned, you can use the Enhanced Search feature of ScriptRunner for Jira cloud and then use the subTaskOf() search function to create the filter you need. 

I hope this information helps,

Regards,

Kristian

Jira doesn’t support parent–child summary matching directly in a single JQL query, since JQL can’t look “up” or “down” hierarchy relationships across summary fields. The clean way to handle your case—where you want subtasks whose parent summary contains “JIRA” and whose own summary starts with “Testing”—is to use the `issueFunction in subtasksOf()` clause available through ScriptRunner or an advanced JQL app. With that, you can query like this:
`issueFunction in subtasksOf("summary ~ 'JIRA'") AND summary ~ '^Testing'`.
If you’re using native Jira Cloud automation instead, you can build a rule to label or set a custom field on subtasks when their parent matches the summary pattern.
