Get issues with links to other projects (Cross project dependencies)

Fredrik Janson_rek4v5

I am looking for a way to get a dependency board (probably in portfolio) up and running.

The filter I want to use should sort out only Cross project dependencies.

Something like "All issues with link type "blocks" OR "is blocked by" AND linked issue is in another project"

No problem in getting all linked issues with certain link types. The problem is I only want issues with cross project links to show.

(Reason being we have a One Scrum Team = One Jira Project setup)

Hi @Fredrik Janson ,

Hope this JQL might for you, this JQL will only work if you have a script runner add-on installed in your instance. Kindly check this:

issueLinkType in (blocks, "is blocked by") and issuekey in hasLinkToProject("project names")

Cheers

Hi thanks,

What I am after is a board showing all issues from all projects with a "blocks" or is "blocked by" link towards another project. Your example needs to be set for each project, right?

Regards

Fredrik

Hi @Fredrik Janson ,

Yes, as of now that is related to one project, if you are looking for all projects then you may need to mention all project names separated by comma (,) in the hasLinkToProject place. For example:

issueLinkType in (blocks, "is blocked by") and issuekey in hasLinkToProject("x", "y", "z")

Here x,y,z are the project keys.

Well yes but I would like to have from ALL projects to ALL projects (except between their own). Sorry if my original post was to fuzzy.

Ex. let use projects A, B & C

If I have links between issues in the projects like:

A->A
A->B
B->C
C->A
C->C

I would like to show:

A->B
B->C
C->A

and exclude:

A->A
C->C

Hi Fredrik,

You can achieve this by using JQL Search Extension plugin , you can use the query linkedByIssueProject = JQL and linkType = "is blocked by" please refer to the documents it contains examples and other necessary information related to the usage of plugin

Hi, Thanks!

I was hoping to find a way to do it without another plugin but I guess it might not be possible. I will try it out if I can get them to accept a new plugin

How are you?

Do you have success on your doubt? ("I would like to have from ALL projects to ALL")

Could you share with us?

I was able to do this without an app buy using jira automation to label all cross project dependencies and then I created a filter off that label:

The first method I posted did not work when multiple blockers or issues were linked. This one covers all cases I think and is simler:

We built Astrolink to solve exactly this — it's a Jira Cloud app that renders an interactive star map (force-directed graph) of your issue links, right inside the issue panel. You can explore links up to multiple levels deep, filter by issue type and link type, and click any node to navigate to that issue. It works with all link types including blockers, relates-to, Confluence links, and more.
