How to get all the issues attached to the epic using scritrunner in jira cloud

[chinmay konkar]

Hello Everyone,

Im using jira cloud and having scritrunner for cloud and I want to fetch all the issues (keys) which are linked to the epic. I tried using inward and outward issuelinks but it is not working for an epic.



Use Case - Basically I want to transition all the stories and tasks to 'Approved' state once its epic gets approved.

Hi @chinmay konkar 

Not using scriptrunner but the built in functions, you can use parentEpic function.

Example : 

• Find issues and sub-tasks in the epic DEMO-123:
  parentEpic = DEMO 123

• Find issues and sub-tasks the epic DEMO-1 or SAMPLE-4:
  parentEpic in (DEMO-1, SAMPLE-4)
