Automation email to list all open features and their blockers

Julie moyaux

I would like to create an automation email to list all open features and only list items that are linked to it via "blocks".

In other words, I want to list the stories, or other jira items, that are listed in the feature as "is blocked by". (they are blocking the feature)

It would be great to be able to get the issue key, name, and status, but even just the key and name of the blocked items would be great.

I do not want to include other link types, such as mentions, etc.

Thanks.

Do you have scriptrunner installed on your instance?

Hi @Julie moyaux welcome to the community. Which version of Jira are you running? If you are running Jira Data Center you could build out an automation rule that could perform this. And as already suggested if you have scriptrunner you get expanded jql functions that will easily suite the above requirements that out of the box jira will not.

I don't know actually.

I have this setup (was for story, but I could easily change for feature), the problem is that it will show all of the links in the email, not just the blockage ones.

I don't know how to know the answer to this.

Go to Issues in your top header row -> Click Search for Issues -> Switch to Advanced Mode -> In the search box, start typing "issuefunction".. does your Jira recognize this syntax?

Scriptrunner gives additional functions to search in Jira, like linked issues which are of type "Blocker" or blocked etc.. So if you can verify above steps then we can give you a syntax for your problem statement..

Thank you so much! Yes it seems to know that.
