How do I query for all issues that have a link of type "in scope of" another issue like ABC-3 ?

[Isabel Snoeckx]

We have multiple Jira projects (on-prem) and I want to show with a query all issues that are linked to issue ABC-3 (whatever the link type, it can be "is blocked by", "is in scope of" etc). If not possible, then just the ones that have the link type "is in scope of" - thanks !

Hi @Isabel Snoeckx and welcome to the Community!

Searching for linked issues is not very well supported in out of the box Jira. On server, if you have Scriptrunner installed, that is possible with the following JQL filter:

issuefunction in LinkedIssuesOf("key = ABC-3")

The first part is a function enabled by the Scriptrunner app. The part between brackets is a subquery that could be virtually anything. Specifying link types is possible too, with an additional parameter.

Hope this helps!
