How to quickfilter all items belongin to a Epic Link

Question

I created a Kanban Board with Epics, Stories and Sub-Tasks.

I would like to have a quickfilter to see all Stories, Tasks and Sub-tasks beloning to a given Epic Link.

I tried as follow

"Epic Link" = ICS-22  but this shows only first level Stories /Tasks and not also relevant sub-tasks

I have only filters on cloud....

Hi @Marco Sbarrini ,

I think this is possible on Cloud using the OOTB JQL function:

parentEpic in ("DEV-1")

This is listed in the Jira Cloud JQL documentation here: https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/advanced-search-reference-jql-functions/

@Jack Brickey please correct me if I'm mistaken)

Hi Marco, welcome to the Community. This is a very often asked question here and I encourage you to use the Search bar above to gain more responses and options to what I have answer with below. The short answer is that, very unfortunately, you cannot do this OOTB. Specifically, as you have found, you will not get the sub-tasks. You can consider many different addon options and maybe you already have one: Scriptrunner, Power Scripts, etc. I think a Scriptrunner example might look like this... "Epic Link" = ABC-123 OR issuekey in subtasksOf(' "Epic Link" = ABC-123 ')
