How to fix structure formula?

Question

Hello Jira community!

Desperately need help regarding structure formulas....

I inherited a Jira structure in my defect Jira project that requires a couple of tweaks.
My structure includes Defects and Versioned Defects from my defect Jira project and linked tasks (Issue Links - > is documented by) that reside in another Jira project.

I want to display a couple of linked task properties (Status, Owner) in my defect Jira structure columns, but do not know how to do it.

Could you help?

Regards

Barbara

Stephan, thank you very much, I have all linked tasks added to to my structure, defects are parent, linked tasks are child objects. I want to have a formula column the structure that lists linked task Status, for example.

Hello @Barbara Vdovc

It depends on how issues are connected, the type of data you want to display and what you have in your structure. For example, if linked sub-issues are not added to the structure and only their parent issues are, you can show Statuses of linked sub-issues for each parent with a formula like this:

issuelinks.map(if $.source = this : $.destination else $.source).status

Please reach out to us directly at our support portal and we'll be glad to assist you properly.

You can always reach out to the app vendor here - Structure by Tempo - Jira Portfolio Management & PPM | Atlassian Marketplace. They also have a link to their documentation but I have found their team is always very helpful and responsive.
