How get issue link to epic

[Stephane Rathgeber]

Hello,

How can I make a query using the field "Epic link", I want to get all issues in epic.

But i can't use "Epic link" in my query (custom field 10406)

The custom type is "Epic Link Relationship"

Thank you

Is it a Jira Cloud instance?

If so, you can retrieve all issues which are descendants of an Epic (or list of Epics) with JQL sentence like:

parentEpic in (XXX-263)

You may add more comma-separated epic issue keys.

It is a Jira server instance. 

Field 'parentEpic' does not exist or you do not have permission to view it.

@Stephane Rathgeber, Hope below similar community questions can help you with this,

• jira query: issues with linked issues
• JQL to show all issues AND subtasks in the Epic

Or 

Simply use below query, which will fetch all child issues of your EPIC

parent = <Epic ticket id>

I have try with:

• issue in linkedIssues(XXX-263)
• parent = XXX-263
• "Parent Link" = XXX-263

@Stephane Rathgeber, correct me if i am wrong, by All the issues in EPIC you meant All child issues created inside epic. right? 

If possible please share a screenshot

This is not the sub-task of the epic, but the tasks related to the epic

Hello,

Your JQL query should look like this:

"Epic Link" = "KEY-134"

[Stephane Rathgeber]

I try this: "Epic Link" = XXX-263

The error message is "Field 'Epic Link' does not exist or you do not have permission to view it."

Is there the Epic Link field available in the list of custom fields?

[Stephane Rathgeber]

What do you mean?

[Alexey Matveev]

I mean if you open coq item -> Issues -> Custom Fields. Can you see there the Epic Link field?

[Stephane Rathgeber]

Yes I can see

Are you sure that your user has a Jira Software License?

[Stephane Rathgeber]

Yes, in user management I see my user with "Applications: JIRA Software"

Hi @Stephane Rathgeber,

You can try installing a plug-in to solve this problem.
