Structure: Show Epics for Stories based upon a Story query

Question

Hi, not sure if I'm being stupid but I am trying to show stories and their epics in Structure based upon a query against the stories.

So for example:

project = PRO AND issuetype = Story and sprint in (956, 966)

Will retrieve the stories for the selected sprints, but the Epics aren't in those sprints. Is it possible for Structure to pull these Epics back and only the Epics associated to the Stories in the Query?

Hello Stuart,

For adding Epics to Stories that are already added to the structure, you can simply add the Group by Epic generator and parent Epics will appear above their Stories.

I hope this helps. If you need further assistance, please feel free to contact us directly at support.almworks.com and we'll get back to you shortly.

Did you try to use "parentEpic" ? i dunno how well will it satisfy your needs but this will list the epic as well all the issues associated with the epic.

Hi thanks, I don't think that works. I want to retrieve Epics without having to put the specific link in. So where I have retrieved the stories, i want to show their parents.
