Hello @[deleted] ,

It seems that this feature is not supported yet. You can vote for it.

Hi Roman.

I am not aware of a way of bulk changing issue links. Although there is an option that is similar. It is possible to link multiple issues to another issue at the same time. At the "normal" link window there is the possibility to search for issues.

There you get an option to make an advanced search using JQL. After searching with JQL you can select multiple issues to link.

Then press "Add", and now you can link them all to the original issue.

There is a limitation to this solution. You can only link 10 issues at a time, so a big bulk-operation can not be substituted.

A workaround to the limitation is to run a filter from issue navigator, export all issue keys to Excel, paste the issue keys in a note, exchange the newlines with spaces or tabs and then paste it into the issue field on the link-view.

Hope this helps and good luck with your bulk-problem!

For recent Jira (writing this on 2021) Linked Issues a bit different (at least in our case we need to go through no. 1):

You need to JQL for your own Jira Ticket (that wants to linked with multiple issue)
Right-click the three-dots menu and choose Link
It'll prompt you to search issue with simple or advanced search (JQL)
Choose your desired issues
Click Add

See below images for references:

Faced this scenario today in Jira Cloud, and solved it by using Jira automations

Peter McIntyre

the "Link" option doesn't show for me (there's lots of options if you scroll the menu, but no "Link")

also:

Right-click the three-dots menu and choose Link

Right-click opens up a chrome menu, i think you mean left-click

Hi,

What's that mean "normal link window"?

I can't find this one

@Peter McIntyre make sure you're opening the menu on JIRA Issue Navigator rather than the Issue side bar

@mochadwi At the max how many issue can we link. Any idea?

Shahrzad Shariati

Where is the Jira Issue Navigator? Can you include a snapshot? I am unable to find the "link" option as well.

Sigrid Schoepel

Please share how you did it. Was it an automatically run macro or manual in each issue?

We also struggled with the bulk link problem. That is why we created the free plugin for that - Issue Link Manager. I hope for your feedback after trying it.

Best regards,
