Query to see issues that BLOCK others

[Nina Shulyak]

Hi everyone, 

i've searched all over how to make an advanced search on issues that are blockers for others and couldn't find a solution. Please help.
Some community answers suggested issuefunction, but it does not work (error from JIRA that it doesn't exist). 
So basically, i need to find all issues that are blockers, in other words have links "blocks" with other issues.
Thanks in advance for your assistance!

UPD: i'm on Jira Cloud, IssueLinkType also doesn't work somehow

Hi @Nina Shulyak 

What is your Jira version?

For Jira 8 and above try issueLinkType = Blocks

thanks for your answer, Ravi, but sadly, here's what i have when i use your suggested query :
Field 'issueLinkType' does not exist or you do not have permission to view it

i'm on JIRA could. Any thoughts how to see the blockers still? Appreciate your response

Oh ok. Look at this page for some possible workarounds: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/jira-query-issues-with-linked-issues/qaq-p/426769

On this page I can see some open Jira tickets for implementing this on cloud as well.
