How to query jira issues with atlas goals linked?

[Shepherd Moore, Jen (J.A.)]

I want to write a jql which returns all Jira work items (epics, stories, etc) with links to goals in Jira Atlas (Jira Cloud)

Hi, @Shepherd Moore, Jen (J.A.) - in this recent community post it sounds like JQL doesn't work with Atlas yet. 

Quoting @Ste Wright 

Atlas doesn't support JQL at this stage.

Atlassian confirms that in this answer, which also has some other options using URL parameters...

1. Atlas doesn't natively support "advanced search" but all searches are backed by something called TQL (Team Query Language). The search filters that are available are all translated to TQL - we just don't expose a way for you to type it in.

2. That said, you can enter parameters in the URL if you're very keen.

3. Otherwise if you just want to search for a specific project or goal key, you can enter the key in search and it will show up.

You could suggest this though as a new feature request? You can do this through here: https://jira.atlassian.com/secure/Dashboard.jspa

Hi Amanda!  Totally got it on Atlas. 

I'm looking, though, to do the JQL within Jira itself to reflect where "Goals" have been linked.   

So - I would not expect to query in Atlas.   

"Linked Goals" in Jira itself is what I want to query, and have a list of issues return.

Sorry that I misunderstood your question!

I do see Atlas Goals for filtering issues, but in JQL that is just a custom field, so it seems you might be able to use that. For some reason, my instance has multiple "Atlas Goals" custom fields which has sent me down a rabbit hole... 🙃

I was able to search on: goals = [ID of Goal] and get a list of linked jira tickets returned in that search
