Issues in epic for a constrained list of epics

Andrew Butters

I have a query that will return a list of Defects, Tasks, and Stories in a specific project that have specific statuses that are linked to a list of Epics:

issueFunction in issuesInEpics("key in (IEI-100149, IEI-75694, IEI-93612, IEI-93755, IEI-64800, IEI-84670, IEI-103089, IEI-67785, IEI-13856,IEI-103693)") AND type in (story, task, defect) AND project = iei AND status not in (closed, done, rejected, deferred)

What I need is a way to do this without hardcoding the list of Epics. It would look something like this: 

issueFunction in issuesInEpics("key in (Type=Epic and fixVersion in (ver1, ver2))") AND type in (story, task, defect) AND project = iei AND status not in (closed, done, rejected, deferred)

Only that doesn't work and I haven't been able to figure out how to do it. Anyone have thoughts?

Hi @Andrew Butters ,

try to remove the 'key in' pare, something like this:

issueFunction in issuesInEpics('Type=Epic and fixVersion in (ver1, ver2)') AND type in (story, task, defect) AND project = iei AND status not in (closed, done, rejected, deferred)
