help with jira expr language

Mor February 25, 2025

Hi, 

I have a structure with sub-tasks, and I want to add a column that will show who the "parent" of the sub-task is and a column of the epic that is linked to the father of the sub-task (epic-link).

for the first column I used this formula: parentTask.summary and it works,

for the second column I used access(parentTask,"epic link") but I'm getting the epic's key. when I try to add . summary to receive the name, but it returns empty. 

any idea what can I do *without* adding the epics to the structure? (I want to see only sub-tasks on this structure)

Thanks
