How do you pull linked development tasks into a JQL for a set of user stories under a parent?

[Joanne Rogers]

Working with Dashboards and Filters, and I want to add a filter that will pull only the development tasks associated with a Story into the results.

Hi @Joanne Rogers 

Welcome to the community !!

If you  would be interested in a mktplace solution to view linked issues in a tree view, I can suggest our app

Issue Hierarchy 

The app also allows you to view your project issue hierarchy created with issue links in a tree view. You can view %complete progress at each parent level. It rolls up the time tracking fields, story point or numeric fields at each parent level. The app can be added to a dashboard as well

Hello @Joanne Rogers ,

Welcome to the community.

Cristiano with the Appfire Team Here,

Unfortunately, this type of search is not possible with native JQL,

The app our team works, JQL Search Extension for Jira, will attend to your needs with the following query:

Project = "Early Years Reform" AND issuetype = Development AND issues in linkedIssuesOfQuery("Project = 'Early Years Reform' and issuetype = Story") AND parent is not empty

This is to dynamically query for all issues from Development type with an parent, if you need to query for a specific epic, just change the parent info

Project = "Early Years Reform" AND issuetype = Development AND issues in linkedIssuesOfQuery("Project = 'Early Years Reform' and issuetype = Story") AND parent = EYP-XXX

 Then just save it as a filter and use it wherever you need it.

The extension also provides resources to search for parents (even recursively, like, parent of parents/child of childs) as well for linked issues in general, and so on. 

If you need any help setting this up, or just doubts in general about our app, feel free to contact our support team.

Is 'Development task' an issuetype in your project? And are these like subtasks?
If so you can configure your jql to :
issuetype = "Development Task" AND parent in (issuetype = Story AND project = ABC)

Replace the ABC with your Jira project key

[Joanne Rogers]

Development is an issuetype

- Issuetype = Development AND parent in (lssuetype 

However when the jql gets to this stage issuetype is not identified as a option only (linkedIssues(""),  issuesWithRemoteLinksByGlobalId(""),

Ok, lets see if the AI feature in Jira Cloud can shine here 😊

[Joanne Rogers]

Pulled in 1000+ records, so with this adjustment I get all the relevant dev tasks, next I am looking to only get the items linked to a Story (removing bug and enhancement dev tasks)

[Rajat Pratap Singh]

Ok, then you are looking for a 2 level nested query. I don't think that is possible natively in Jira Cloud.

It could be possible through scriptrunner plugin by calling the issue function like:
issueFunction in linkedIssuesOf( "issuetype = Story AND 'Epic Link' = EYP-123")
