JQL: child issues with specific status of parent and child issues

[Marcel Rode]

Hi, is it possible to search with default jira seach capabilitys (e.g. no use of scriptrunner) for parent issues that need to have a specific status and are also connected to child issues that need to have a specific status? I was already going through Field Reference for our Jira Version but found nothing usefull.

Hi Marcel,

You can't refer to child issues' statuses using JQL. To find all open issues that have the link "is parent of", try this:

status = Open and issueLinkType = "is parent task of"

To find parents of the specific issue, try this:

status = Open and issue in parentIssuesOf("PROJKEY-123")
