Python API retreive all ISSUES under an EPIC

Valentin Popov_pj3gir

Hello to everyone,

i'm trying to retreive all isues under un EPIC using python API "Jira".

I've successfully get all issues including (Stories,Task,Bugs,Epics):

#get all issues for the prject
data1=jira_client.search_issues(f'project = \"{project_name}\"', startAt=i, maxResults=chunk_size, expand='changelog')

But i don't know how to associate Task/Bugs to un epic, i have tryed this solution from

https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Query-to-find-all-issues-related-to-an-EPIC-including-subtasks/qaq-p/871457

but it does not worked, data2 has only one object (a epic itself 'DATA-580')

data2 = jira_client.search_issues("project = \"Data\"  AND \"Epic Link\" = DATA-580 OR parentEpic = DATA-580")

 Any idea?

Hi @Valentin Popov 

Welcome to the Community!!

Use the below Python wrapper to 

https://atlassian-python-api.readthedocs.io/index.html

Do a  <span>pip</span><span>&nbsp;</span><span>install</span><span>&nbsp;</span><span>atlassian-python-api</span>

And save the file and run

from atlassian import Jira

jira = Jira(
    url='https://your-site.atlassian.net',
    username='email',
    password='token',
    cloud=True)

jql_request = '"parentEpic" = DATA-580'
issues = jira.jql(jql_request)
print(issues)

This will work for sure

Make sure you extract the data since it returns every issue data
