How to extract parent issue by filtering with a child field

Amrutha_lf7h5h

Hi,

 

How can we extract parent issue along with the child issue based on filtering the child filed & it's value.

 

Example: https://base/rest/api/3/search?fields=summary, customfield_10261, subtasks, parent & jql=project='EVENT'+and+issuetype+in+('Event','CalendarEntry')+and+cf[10262]>="2020-12-15 00:00"

 

- Parent issue is Event & child issue is CalendarEntry

- cf[10262] is a child issue field.

- The above API returns only the sub issues that is CalendarEntry. But I want to extract their parent issue also along with the response.

Hi @Amrutha 

The reason why you're only getting child issues is because of the cf[10262] bit - it doesn't exist for any parent issues, so it won't return them. What you would need to do is adjust your JQL to look like

and (cf[10262]>="2020-12-15 00:00" or cf[10262] is EMPTY)

so that it will pick up parent issues that match the rest of your query
