He have attached PI labels to our initiatives and are trying to find a filter that will return all issues tied into those initiatives (Epics to stories to subtasks, for example). Is there a filter that can do this?
I’m Prosper, a support engineer at Appfire, and I’m here to help.
Just to compliment what @Trudy Claspill as said, If you are open to third party apps, you can try out our App JQL Search Extension for Jira.
You can use the query
issue in childrenOfIssuesInQueryRecursive("key = {parentKey}")
to find all children issues in the hierachy level below "parentKey". You can also add other helpers functions and filter by labels as well to fit your use case.
You can see more information about this query here, and please contact our support if you have any other questions about this query.
We’ll be happy to help you!
Best regards,
Prosper.
Since you are on Premium, I'd suggest exploring portfolioChildIssuesOf() in your JQL filter. It will return all descendants of whatever issue(s) inside the ()s.

Hello @patrick_sullivan
Welcome to the Atlassian community.
There is not a native filter that will do that.
There is a function that can return all the issues under another issue in a hierarchy, but that works for only one issue at a time specified by issue key. You can use the portfolioChildIssuesOf() function for that.
Natively there is not a way to get that information for multiple issues except my using multiple criteria combined with OR:
issue in portfolioChildIssuesOf("INT-1") or issue in portfolioChildIssuesOf("INT-2")
You would have to use a separate filter to get the Initiative list for initiatives that have the Label, and then plug those issue keys into a filter like the one above.
There are third party apps that extend the capabilities of JQL, like ScriptRunner and JQL Tricks. Do you have any such apps, or are you willing to consider getting such an app to meet your requirement?
