I'm creating a filter, but apparently I can either see only subtasks or main tasks, but not both?

Hi! I'm creating a filter (reports) and apparently if I get a template that contains sub tasks, there is nothing I can do to be able tosee the main task where that sub task is, or the other around is the same, if I get a template that has the main task, I can't see sub tasks in it. Am I doing something wrong?

Hi @Fernando Brandao,

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

Correct, out-of-the-box JQL cannot do nested queries so that you can get the parent issue with its children, unless you specify the parent issue in your query. You would need an app from the Marketplace that extends JQL in order to do it. I have used JQL Tricks and Extended Search in the past to do this, and I know that you can do this in Structure as well.
