JIRA 'Link Summary' Field Missing

Nora Blank

I have previously been able to utilize the "Link Summary" option in JQL to query linked issues by specific link types (see example below)

project = "Portfolio" AND "Link Summary" !~ "relates to" AND status = Active ORDER BY priority

After using this JQL for quite some time, I just received an error message on that query that states: "Field 'Link Summary' does not exist or you do not have permission to view it."

It appears this field was deleted at some point recently. How can it be recreated?

Hi Nora,

Link Summary seems to a custom field created by your Jira Administrator since the field is not created OOTB on a fresh new instance.

Could you try the following?

project = "Portfolio" AND issueLinkType = "relates to" AND status = Active ORDER BY priority

Regards

I get an error when running the supplied query - "Field 'issueLinkType' does not exist or you do not have permission to view it.". Our instance does not have ScriptRunner installed, so that might be it if the JQL isn't supported from base JIRA.

I had thought the field was standard out-of-the-box from JIRA, but if the field is custom - I'll reach out to our JIRA Admin to see why it was deleted and see if they can add it back.

Thanks so much!

Note that issueLinkType was introduced on Jira 8.x

That would do it! We're currently still on 7.13.0.
