Link Tasks to Epics with identical fields

Gregor Weis

I have around 800 Epics that actually should be linked to underlying tasks. Their mapping should be recognized by carring identical data (a number) in one particular jira issue field. Something like "Link all Epics A to all task issues B with identical field content C" How can I link these thousands of tasks with their respective Epics without having to repeat this 800 times, but do it in bulk?

many thanks for your help

thanks Fabian for the input. i am doing bulk changes quite often and am familiar with that flow. I believe you are describing a flow where I can enter e.g. one new Epic Key for e.g. 5 tasks withn the bulk edit flow.

But I need to apply a logic to do it for 800 different epics to link them to their matching of around 4000 tasks. At the end each epic has 5 tasks linked to them, and the mapping is accomplished by identifying that the jira field "A" is present in the epic and each task.
