How I can use the keys of a saved filter in other JQL search

Question

I want an advanced search using another filter, for example if I want to search for this JQL, but instead of using a specific key use the keys of another query, such as issue in linkedIssues(ABC-123,"is duplicated by")

issue in linkedIssues(Other JQL,"is duplicated by")

Hi @BRAYAN DANILO VELASQUEZ JIMENEZ

I’m Charlotte, a support engineer at Appfire and I’m here to help you.

Unfortunately, using vanilla JQL, you’ll not be able to do it dynamically.

In the app where my team works, JQL Search Extensions for Jira, you can use this query to find linked issues in a specific project from a specific type, for example:

issue in linkedIssuesOfQuery("project=ABC AND type = Story", "is duplicated by")

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

We’ll be happy to help you!

Hello @BRAYAN DANILO VELASQUEZ JIMENEZ

The native Jira JQL function you have specified doesn't support what you want.

In general, the native Jira JQL functions don't support use of another filter as a parameter for the function.

You would need to consider a third party app that extends JQL capabilities to get such a feature. Are you open to that option?
