Hi @Pedro Webster

I’m Maurício, a support engineer at Digital Toucan and I’m here to help you.

Unfortunately, using JQL of Jira, you’ll not be able to do it.

In the app where my team works, JQL Search Extensions for Jira, we have the aliases LinkedByIssueProject that works searching for issues that are linked by issues from a particular project.

* For example, to find all issues which are linked by issues from project A:

linkedByIssueProject = A

We also have the opposite, LinksIssueProject which searches for issues that link to issues from a particular project.

* For example, to find all issues which link to issues from project A:

linksIssueProject= A

Please contact our support if you have any other questions about this query.

We’ll be happy to help you!
Best regards,
Maurício

1. You can use linkedIssues() JQL as described here https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/advanced-search-reference-jql-functions/

issue in linkedIssues(AA-1,"relates to")

2. By using script runner for Jira cloud:

Only thing is here to use the nested filter to fetch the required result:

Project = XXX and issuetype = Story and  issuefunction in linkedIssuesOf("project = XXX and issutype != Bug")
