How do you create a filter with the issues that have not been linked to a epic link ?

Alex_D February 26, 2015

Hello,having a database with 400 issues for example and only 125 issues that are not linked, I would like to know how can I create a JIRA Filter that ONLY shows the issues that have not been linked to an epic link.

Is it necessary to use advanced search or how it is done?

P.S: I am kinda new to JIRA sad

Thank you in advance

In the issue navigator if you use a query like the below it works:

project = YourProjectCodeHere AND "Epic Link"=null

Neither "Epic Link" is empty or "Epic Link"=null work for me

We have a Service Desk project for Enhancement Requests which links to a Dev project. Each Dev task needs to then be linked to an EPIC (in Dev project). We use the following if it helps anyone in a similar scenario.

project = Development AND type not in (Epic) AND issueFunction in linkedIssuesOf("project = ServiceDesk and type = \"Enhancement Request\"")

@Glen Cochrane  to use issue Function you need scriptrunner ;)

@karim.belhadj woops, thanks for pointing that out. SR has been part of our Jira for so long I forget what's standard 🙄

Definitely an advanced search.  Try:

"Epic Link" is empty
