How are Child requirements different than Issue Links and when should we use one over the other?
Hi @Isabel L
Welcome to the community!
Parent and child Jira issue is more like a hierarchy structure and relationship between the Jira issues.
Here is a basic example of the hierarchy structure:
Epic > Story > Sub-task
Perhaps you may refer to the following document to understand more about the Jira hierarchy:

Issue Links are more flexible and establish relationships between issues that do not necessarily follow a hierarchical structure.

Thank you.
How should we ogranize the parent/child or issue links so that the tree view can also be useful?
