How to create a filter to return list of linked issues (bugs) which are fixed by certain tasks

Question

I have a list of tasks, all these tasks have a label say 'labelA', all belong to a spring 'sprintab'. Certain tasks out of these fixes linked issues (bugs).
I need a filter with JQL which provides me list of all such linked issues (bugs)

Hello @Swati Chandra

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

Natively Jira does not have a method to get a list of issues linked to another set of issues, where that other set of issues is dynamically derived itself from a filter.

It supports only filtering for issues that are linked to one (at a time) individual issues specified by issue key. Refer to

https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/jql-functions/#linkedWorkItem

There are third party apps that extend the capabilities of JQL that could help you get what you want, like ScriptRunner Enhanced Search and Jira Search Extensions (to name just two).

Do you have access to such apps already, or are you willing to consider getting such an app?
