Within the issue view of issue type Initiative both "child issues" and "linked issues" are duplicating the same issues.
Is there any way to not have this duplicated? It is messy and confusing to our users.
Hi @brian_g
Child issues and linked issues are two different features - there's no need to add both to issues.
I'd recommend...
Do you know why both are being used now?

Hi @brian_g
That's not a native feature; sounds like you might have an Automation Rule (or similar) running which is duplicating the relationship for some reason.
I'd try to find that rule and clarify why it's needed, then deactivate it if it's not required.
As I say above, I'd also consider removing the link type so users don't use it in future.

You are correct! There was a hidden automation that was was not appearing in the Recent rule executions in the issue view causing this duplication.
ACTION
{"update": {
"issuelinks": [
{
"add": {
"type": {
"name": "Parent-Child"
},
"inwardIssue": {
"key": "{{issue.Parent Link.data.key}}"
}
}
}
]
}
}
Thanks!

@Ste WrightI just stumbled upon the same/similar problem.
Could you elaborate why link "is parent of" and "is child of" is not the same as using parent/child relationship.
What else if not a simple link of specific type is a "relationship"?

Hello @Joe Chapman
That you have to ask Atlassian. Some people seem to reinvent the wheel and make some things more special than others. For me it's the same. From a SW development point of view there is "a" relationship which has a type, DOT.
But for the planet of Atlassian this seems obviously not the case. For the reasons why and how... I don't know.
