Hi Sthuthi,

The Epic Links custom field is an Agile Custom field, and I am afraid it is not possible to have something similar to that with a Story instead of an Epic. It would require some customizations in the source files which unfortunately are not allowed in Cloud environment.

Hope this addresses your question.

Cheers,

Clarissa.
