Search for all issues where a linked issue is of type X

Allan Savage

I've found the linkedIssues() function, but it requires an issue key i.e. it's limited to finding all linked issues of type X to a specific issue.  You don't appear to be able to wildcard it in any way. e.g issues in linkedIssues("BT-1","is duplicated by") works happily, but only for the root issue "BT-1".

I want to be able to generate a list of all issues having a linked issue where the link type is, say, "is duplicated by".

Hello,

You would need an add-on. If you have Power Scripts add-on you could create a file hasLinks.sil with the following code

string [] keys = selectIssues(argv[0]);
string [] ret;
for(string k in keys) {
   for ( JIssueLink jLink in getIssueLinksDetail(k))  {
        if (jLink.description == argv[1]){
            ret += k; 
        } 
    } 
}
return ret;

And then make a JQL query like this

key in silJQLList("hasLinks.sil", "project = SD", "is duplicated by")

You can read more about JQL functions in Power Scripts here
