JQL: Show all issueLinkType != "is blocked by" plus blocked issue = done

[Anja Eigner]

Hi there,

I need some help. I was aksed if there is a chance to see the issues in the backlog which are blocked by another issue and this issue is not done yet.

Means, that the FE team is blocked by the BE team. It does take some time to check every issue in the sprint backlog if the blocked issue from BE side is done yet or not.  Therefore I would like to set up a JQL which excludes all issues which have a issueLinkType "is blocked by" BUT includes all issues where the blocked issue is done.

Any ideas?

In the roadmap, you can see the dependency of tasks.

1. Flag or label such tasks.

2. Go to filter.

3. Click on Advance issue search.

4. Select Project.

5. Select type of issue.

6. Select status To Do and In Progress

7. Click on More

8.  Click on Label / Flagged (as you selected at serial no 1)

9.  Click on search.

10. You will get list of task which is dependent (is blocked by/blocks) and not yet done.

Hi there, thanks for your response!

I can follow all steps besides step 7. "Click on More". I do not find any CTA or similar "More" in my advanced issue search screen 🧐

Here is a screenshot (but in German, sorry for that):

Ok. 

1.Please switch to standard version instead of JQL

2.  In your screen shot please see (Zur standardversion wechsein) on the right corner.
3. Click on that. it will change to standard version.

4.  Now you will be able to see the 'More' option.
