How can I show issues linked by a certain reason in dashboard or confluence?

I want to show dependencies in a Jira Dashboard or Confluence page.

My Filter for an initiative ticket type that is "implemented by" or "blocked by" another team ticket.

project = ABC AND statusCategory not in (Done) AND issueLinkType in ("is blocked by", "is implemented by")

Currently a Display Option is "Linked issues" in the table result but it shows everything (included "relates to") tickets.  I only want to show the links by certain reason tickets.

Is this possible? Thank yoU!

Hi @Bea Tea ,

so if you use the filter that you show above it should only return issue with links of type "is blocked by" or "is implemented by". Are you saying that is not the case?

if you use that filter in the Jira JQL search what is returned?

Hi @Jack Brickey , the filter works fine but the "linked issue" column shows every issue that is linked to the ticket (a lot of "relates to"). I'd like to see the reason they are linked to clearly show it's "blocked by" another ticket. Thanks

Ah, so if you have an issue that has multiple links and one or more include "is blocked by" or "is implemented by" but also include other link types then those are also displayed in your filtered list, correct? Indeed this will occur and you cannot 'hide' those links. now you could find all issues that only have one or both of your desire link types by adding "and issuelinktypes not in (X, Y, Z...)' but. I don't believe this is what you want since it would exclude those issues that include the desired link types that also include the undesired link types

Right, the filter is working fine. It is the displaying of the issues. I'd like to clearly see what ticket is "blocked by" or "fixed by" not all related links.

Hi @Bea Tea , Were you ever able to resolve this? I find myself trying to figure out the same where I would like the issueLinkType to display on the dashboard.

@Asher Zundel no, it's not supported out of the box. I've seen folks pitch widgets/gadgets but I amnot authorized tdo try them out. Let me know if you do find a hack!

No, looks like they want you to buy 3rd party add ons to do it :(
