Can I show a list of child issues for a particular EPIC?

John.OHare March 31, 2025

I want to show all users stories that are listed under an epic Via JIRA function tool within confluence documentation.

hi @John.OHare,

Welcome to the Atlassian Community. 

Try this:

  • Create a filter in Jira with a JQL like this:
    • parentEpic= DEMO-1 - to include all issues under epic including sub-tasks

    • parentEpic= DEMO-1 and type in standardIssueTypes() - to include only parent tasks (stories, tasks, etc)

  • Save your filter and give it a name
  • In Confluence, add the Filter results macro and configure it to use your saved filter
  • As a result you will get the issues under your epic (DEMO-1, in my example) listed

Thank you for your response Danet - I used the Parent Id = "JIRA ID" method and seemed to work ok.

Hi @John.OHare 

 

Could you include the macro JIRA Issue and use the advanced JQL Parent = XXX to fetch related stories ?

The quickest way is to use one of the Jira issues macros and then use this JQL search:

<issue in portfolioChildIssuesOf("<your Epic>") ORDER BY created DESC>

If you want to include the Epic itself then you will have to add that to the search.

<issue in portfolioChildIssuesOf("<your Epic>") OR key = <your Epic> ORDER BY created DESC>
