In addition to Christoph's suggestion, ScriptRunner should be able to do this, too.

Cloud: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.onresolve.jira.groovy.groovyrunner/cloud/overview

Server: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.onresolve.jira.groovy.groovyrunner/server/overview

The add-on uses scripted JQL functions using subqueries. Basically, you can get what you're looking for using a query similar to this:

issueFunction in linkedIssuesOf("issuetype = Story", "blocks")

The linkedIssuesOf() function takes a subquery and then the link description as parameters (with the link description being optional).

Using this method, you would need three separate filters/queries, but this could work for you, I think.

Hi Satya,

please check out the add-on JQL tricks which can do things like this: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.j-tricks.jql-plugin - as far as I know this is not really possible in standard JIRA.

Cheers

Christoph
