Epics without ISSUES IN EPIC

Question

Hi,

I am trying to set up a filter to identify EPICS that have no issues listed in the section named ISSUES IN EPICS. I usually have issues under type ACTION listed within each EPIC Issue.

I tried the following which worked at the beginning but all of the sudden it started giving 100s of EPICS that do have ACTIONS in them.

project = "ABC" AND reporter = currentUser() AND type = Epic AND (issueFunction not in epicsOf("type in (action)") )

Thanks.

I know this is old.  However, is this possible to include Epics without any issues (not just Stories)?

Hi Fabio,

It's not possible to do this without an plugin.

If you have the paid plugin Script runner installed then you can easily do it.

issuetype = Epic and issueFunction not in hasLinkType("Epic-Story Link")

the above JQL will give you all epics in the system which don't have a child story.

Kind regards,

Carlos
