Hi @Jay Rajaram 

You need the third party add-on app ScriptRunner for Jira.

We need to use the nested filter here to fetch the required result:

---

Project = xyz and issuetype = Incident and  issuefunction in linkedIssuesOf("project = xyz and issutype != Bug")

---

Hope this will help.

Use below as below functions will not work in cloud version and may need different payment.

issue in( linkedIssues(Key)) and issuetype in (bug. Story)

Hi, @Jay Rajaram 

As you're on Jira Cloud, the correct answer is to get an app that provides JQL extensions you're looking for.
With standard JQL, you can only get a list of issues and export them to Excel for further processing. This works if you want to do a one-off analysis. If your use case is more dynamic, look beyond standard Jira.

Standard JQL doesn't easily allow it, but you can quickly find the results using our professional indexing service JQL Search Extensions

You can use this query to find all your Incident tickets that don’t have any Problem tickets linked to them.

issue in linkedIssuesOfQuery("project=TestProject and issuetype != Problem") and issuetype = incident

Check out the documentation for more examples.
I hope this helps!
