How to display all child tasks in an epic using the JIRA macro in confluence

Chris Hall_9iqnha

I am new to using JIRA and Confluence and I am stuck on something that seems rather basic. I am trying to figure out how to display all of the child issues of a JIRA epic within a Confluence page.

I found the page: How to display all child issues of an epic using t... (atlassian.com)

Using this page, I tried using a JIRA legacy macro any typed the following JQL: parentEpic = "Epic Key". This allows me to see the actual epic itself but not the child tasks within that epic. Unsure of why I am getting this bug, the above mentioned page says that the simple code I typed should work. I am showing my results in the attached screenshot.

Hi @Chris Hall,

This should work with Jira Issues macro or Filter Results macro. I just tested with a JQL similar to yours and they show all the items under the epic.

Another way to display this info, is to use the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) macro offered by our Great Gadgets app (perhaps you already have it, otherwise you could install it with 1-month free trial).

All you have is to do is configure the macro with a filter or JQL like "parentEpic = EPIC-1" or "parentEpic IN (EPIC-1, EPIC-2)" etc and it will display the items under the epic(s) in a tree structure in form of Epic > Tasks, Stories > Sub-Tasks along wither their status.

Hope this helps.

Danut.
