How can I mass update Parent Link in Epics?

Amzad Khan_xg23n0

I am trying to Bulk Update Parent link to list of EPICs which are 30 in my case as in the below screenshot, but it is not working. Is there are limitations to link Epics to parent Initiative ?
Note: We have linked more than 1000 epics to the same Parent Initiative.

If there is any limitations to this please let me know how many Epics can be linked to Initiative in cloud.

Please let me know how can I update Parent link to list of Epics without Jira Admin access.

Hi @Amzad Khan

Welcome to the community.

Do you access, right permissions to the projects where the initiatives reside?

Browse, Create, Edit, etc...

I have Browse, Create, and Edit Permission to the project where the Initiative is resides.

Note: I do not have Jira admin Access, but don't think that is required for bulk update right ?

Hi @Amzad Khan

I think I have read this wrong.

If you want to change the parent of Epic, you should JQL the Epics and bulk update the parent link.

Have you been granted the global permission "Make bulk changes"

Otherwise check with your Jira admin.

I am trying to update Parent Link field in the list of EPICs, which I have provided the screenshot. In the JQL i have 29 EPICS, which I am trying to click on Bulk Change ==>Edit Issues ==> Change Parent Link , as in the above first screenshot I have attached where I am trying to give the Parent Issue Key I am getting no matches found.

Note: As mentioned to the parent, which is "Initiative" I have linked more than 1000+ Epics previously, but now it is not working.

Is there any limitations to link child issues "Epic" in the parent "Initiative"??

When I try to update parent link in the Epic individually by opening single Epic rather than bulk change from the JQL I was able to update the Parent link of initiative in the single Epic.

I am not sure what exactly the issue when I try to bulk change the JQL, can you please help me what exactly causing the issue for bulk change
