Need a query to find issues of linked type

[Gregory Kremer]

Hello,

I want to list all issues that have linked issues with a specific link type, such as Blocks, cloned, etc.. I used this ScriptRunner query:

issueFunction in hasLinks("blocks") 

but it didn't work for some reason. Getting "Function 'hasLinks' does not exist" error message.

Could anyone please assist? I'd greatly appreciate it.

Hi @Gregory Kremer ,

Have you tried the 'issueLink' function?

issueLink, issueLink["link type"], or issueLinkType, where link type or LinkType is a variable you replace with the issue link type (blocks, duplicates, or is blocked by, for example).

@Carlos Garcia Navarro Thank you. That worked. Appreciate your help.

You can use the linkedIssues() function to search for issues that are linked to an issue with a particular type of link. The syntax for this is linkedIssues(issueKey,CaseSensitiveLinkType). For example, you can use the query issue in linkedIssues(ABC-123,"is duplicated by") to find issues that are linked to a particular issue via a particular type of link.

@Riley Venable Thank you for your reply. Just to clarify, I am not interested in linked issues for a specific issue. My goal is to find a total number of issues with a specific Linked Issue value. For example, how many issues with Linked Issue "Blocks" I have? How would this query look like? Thank you.
