issueFunction in subtasksOf does not work for a specific label "Skynet"

Yusuf Toprak

Hi,

I have following problem. I want to filter for Subtasks which have parents (User Story) which have a label "Skynet". This does not work :-(.

with all other labels it works fine.

This is my example query:
project = "Test" AND issuetype = Sub-Task AND issueFunction in subtasksOf("labels = \"Skynet\"") AND Sprint = 1 ORDER BY Rank ASC

I have a lot of sub-tasks available, but I can not filter them.
And also it is not working for Quick Filters.

Hi @Yusuf Toprak ,

I think You not need escape ". Try subtasksOf("labels = Skynet")

I checked on my jira

issuetype = Sub-task and issueFunction in subtasksOf("labels = test")

When you apply complex JQLs try to create them step by step. You will have in hand more obvious results.

I did it step by step.

I also used it without escaping.

It seems that there is a problem with the name "Skynet", because with another label it is working. The query I m using is correct.

Hi @Yusuf Toprak

additonally to @Andrew & @Christos Moysiadis I worry if "AND Sprint = 1" might be a problem.

Since multiple could have an existing Sprint with the exact same name "1" it might be possible, that you're filtering for the "wrong" sprint.

Could you try to use one of the two following statements instead

...AND Sprint in openSprints()
...AND Sprint in closedSprints()

to clarify if this might be your problem of not showing any results?

Best wishes and good luck on the jql filtering.

Hey Guys,

I m starting crying now.
