find subchildren

Question

Hello,

I have a hierarchy "Change Request", then Epic, then Story.

Now I want to list all Stories that are sorted in this hierarchy and e.g. check if the Change Request has a special attribute set.

How do I achieve this in Jira? Without any addons.

Thank you a lot

As per the documentation, no.

You would need an add-on to have more robust filtering functionality.

ok thank you
so it is not possible to have in this function

childIssuesOf("CR-1")

more than 1 element

or use anoter query to filter for a list of CRs?

Hello @boellner boellner

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

Without an add-on this will require multiple steps.

Step 1: Create a filter to get Change Requests that match the criteria.

Step 2: Save the list of issue keys returned in that result set.

Step 3: Create another filter that uses the childIssuesOf("{issueKey}") function repeatedly to get the Story issues of each Change Request you got from the first filter.

issuetype=Story and (issuekey in childIssuesOf("CR-1") or issuekey in childIssuesOf("CR-2") or issuekey in childIssuesOf("CR-3"))
