Bulk remove or delete Issue Links

Sravanthi Boggaram_uk8tai

Hi All -

I have tried to Bulk Update the issues to remove the links from the selected issues.

But I see the "Change Linked Issues" option under Unavailable Actions section at the bottom of the Bulk Change Screen

Please help me with this.

Thanks

Hi @Sravanthi Boggaram ,

Welcome to the community!

Unfortunately, this is indeed not possible within Jira, as the bulk edit page states.

However, If you have Scriptrunner on your instance (an app I would recommend for every instance because of the whole world of custom opportunities it offers via scripting), they have a nice little script prepared here that you can edit to your case and use.

However, if you are new to scripting, please be careful and try it with 1 issue first.

Let me know if you need more help with this!

@Sravanthi Boggaram - I agreed with @Piet Pieters , Your other alternative is to conduct bulk update using CSV file. However you will need an account that has Jira Admin right. https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver089/importing-data-from-csv-1005346812.html

CSV Import only works to add issue links, it does not remove them. Unless I'm doing something wrong.

@Jordan Richter -

If you are a Jira Admin, you can use CSV to bulk edit issues via Systems >> External System Import. Even the name is an "Import", you can use the file to conduct bulk editing operation.

Best, Joseph

You can remove multiply links on the structure view if You use extend and You delete the issues there then the links will be automatically deleted.

Not necessarily a great solution, but you can have a post function on your issuetype that you wish to delete the links from, and have it be in an all to all transition, and then in your bulk edit, you can transition the issues in your JQL using the transition you created to remove the links.

You may still need an add-on like JWT, JSU, or Scriptrunner/etc... to add that post function.
