combine Epic link and jira filter

[Nad]

How can i fetch all the stories and sub task's Epic link to filter  "Filter1") 

Below JQL doesn't work

issuetype in (Story, Sub-task) AND ( "Epic Link" in (filter = "Filter1" ))

"Epic Link" in ('') expects issue keys, e.g. "Epic Link" in ('KEY-2', 'KEY-5')

Filters do not return issue keys so this will never work in JQL. You would need more "sophisticated" functions such as 'issueFunction in linkedIssuesOf('project= EPICPROJ', 'is Epic of')'

Such functions are specifically tailored to find you linked issues of an Epic based on a "subquery". (Above example is from ScriptRunner plugin out of box JQL function).

Consider using the ParentEpic JQL function if you have a specific list of epics....

parentEpic = test-40

returns...

I tried parentEpic and I get an error message that this doesn't exist, can you help me with this?

Hi @Katharina , it could be that you are working with a Team managed project. In which case you can simply use Parent. Feel free to share a sr of your JQL and error if you need further assistance.
