Structure: how to Epic Link or Parent Link to include extend structures

Question

I plan to use generators to select a certain set of Stories.  In the structure, I want to extend with either the Epic Links or the parent epic so that I can navigator to the parent epic and also go down to backlog items and tasks belonging to the stories.

I can't figure out what extender to use to do that.

I think it might be better for everyone involved if you contact the Structure support team directly, @Sam, so we can learn more about the specifics of your use case(s).  Then you can get the advice that's tailored to your needs (and we can post a summary of the resolution here for you and others to refer to it).

Please refer to this thread on the Atlassian Community when you do.

Thanks,

It seems this is based on inserting based on Epics selection, and then expand the stories underneath the epic.

I want to use a selection criteria on certain attributes of stories, from the story then climb the hierarchy and include the epic in the epic link.

The extender from the article will help in case you're using "Parent Link" field of Advanced Roadmaps to connect your Epics and Stories.

In case of "Epic Link" you'll need this type of extender.
