parentEpic = XXX-YY only returns the epic and not issues or subtasks

Oliver Nicholls

Hi there,

I am using Jira Cloud and am trying to filter for all the subtasks in an epic. I found "parentEpic" which should work but it only seems to be returning the epic its self.

I am searching:

issuetype = Subtask AND parentEpic = XXX-YY

however it is only returning the epic XXX-YY and none of the tasks or subtasks associated. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi there,

I did something similar within a project of mine and used EpicLink to pull out the sub-tasks associated with an epic.

Sub-tasks do not have Epics directly, they're linked to an epic by virtue of being part of a story that is in the Epic

Still doesn't work for me, just returns the epic. This is such a basic need for any project planning. Hard to believe this is not addressed by Atlassian yet.

How do you get stories under an epic?

"epic link = <name/key of Epic" will do it.
