Query for issues in a sprint excluding the type toggle where the "Toggled JIRAs" is in same sprint

Question

I am attempting to Query for issues in a sprint excluding the type toggle where the "Toggled JIRAs" is in same sprint.

The idea is that I just want issues where I do not get its corresponding toggle. But I do want toggles where they are "Toggled JIRAs" but not for issues in the current sprint. The idea is that I need to still have toggles that are just updates (progression of a toggle state).

So let me try to restate your question to see if I understand...

Let's say you have 10 issues in a sprint and 2 of those issues are actually linked to a third issue in the same sprint. Are you asking if you can exclude the linked issues from the sprint? Not sure I have it right. But if so, the issue here is that if you were to exclude issues that have links then you would exclude all three not just the two. Unless you specified the board filter specific to the type of link and ensure the one issue doesn't have the same link type.

Now going back to your "Toggle JIRAs" if that is a custom field then it may be possible to simply exclude those issues. You just need to look and see if the issues you wish to exclude have some unique footprint (value, label, etc.) and then factor it into your board filter. Of if you actual want them in the board but just want to hide them then use a Quick filter.

Thank you for the welcome and quick response. I should check internally and see if it is a custom field or addon. I guess I could re-phrase the question by asking if the linkedIssues() function can be used by excluding issues that are linked to issues in the same sprint. It seams to the function requires a specific issueKey.

Luke, welcome to the community!

I do not know what "Toggle JIRAs" is here. Maybe a custom field involved or maybe an addon? Please explain so that I might be able to assist further.
