Using Epic link as criteria in searches does not work

[Ari J Lahti]

I am a bit baffled. Have set-up where Epics are in one project and the stories are in another

Trying to get query to work:

Here, I have an issue, which clearly has an epic link in place 

But when I try to search any of the issues with Epic links, it fails

What could cause this?

[Jack Brickey · Accepted solution]

can you remove all other criteria and simply search for

epic link" in (xxxxx)

Ok, it worked. Thank you. But just for sake of understanding; what if I want to find all issues from one project which are associated to that particular epic?

project = abc AND "epic link" in (xxxxx)
