How to pass output of one filter to another jql seach as an input

[Nallusamy Narayanaswamy]

Hi

We have a issuePicker field custom field which is available in Epic. 

IssuePicker custom field list out list of issues from particular project called "Feature Project"

For an instance,  issue key "Epic-1" will be linked/related to issue-key "Feature-1" through issue picker field. 

Now, 

1. I want  to list issues from feature project that meet specific criteria (type = feature and zone = "Services & Tasks" and "Target GA Release" = "*22.7*") and save this as a filter 

2. I want to get list of epics  whose "Feature Link" (issuePicker field) have keys that the outcome of above filter

How can I pass the output of 1st filter as an input of 2nd filter.

Please help!

Hi @Nallusamy Narayanaswamy 

Please take a look on below docs:

- https://support.atlassian.com/jira-work-management/docs/advanced-search-reference-jql-fields/#Advancedsearchingfieldsreference-filterFilter

- https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Software-questions/Is-it-possible-to-nest-a-filter-inside-another-JQL-query-with/qaq-p/1505604

and check if filter function will solve your problem.

Also script runner have a good jql functions that should be helpful but this require to buy script runner - https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/latest/jira/jql-functions.html
