Filter help - subtasksOf(<CURRENT JQL>)

[Ryan]

I'm wondering if it is possible to use the subtasksOf function dynamically, rather than hard coding the subquery. Here's my example:

assignee = <PERSON>

This shows the following:

1. Subtasks that I am assigned to

2. Stories that I am assigned to

On my team's board, we have a filter like the above for every person on our team. I was toying with the following change:

assignee = <PERSON> OR issueFunction in subtasksOf("assignee = <PERSON>")

This shows the following:

1. Subtasks that I am assigned to

2. Stories that I am assigned to

3. All subtasks for stories that I am assigned to, even if they are unassigned or assigned to someone else

Number 3 above is the new functionality. However, rather than having this be the default behavior for every Person's Name filter, I was wondering if I could kick that out into its own filter, a la "Show All Subtasks", so that this behavior would be toggle-able.

Is there any way to reference the currently filtered / displayed issues in the Subquery parameter?

Hi Ryan,

I'm not sure that I understood you correctly) maybe:

assignee = currentUser() OR issueFunction in subtasksOf("assignee = currentUser()")

 Is there any way to reference the currently filtered / displayed issues in the Subquery parameter?

Yes - to do this, you need to save the filter with filtered issues and refer to its name. Example: 

issuefunction in subtasksOf("filter = 'Stories in Epic'")
