jira - JQL find child of a specific issue

[Gavin]

So I have this:

project = XYZ AND issueLinkType = "is a child of"

Shows all the issues that are a child of an issue.

How do I modify this so that I get only a child of a specific issue?

issue in linkedIssues("DMC-24","is a parent of")

Hi @Gavin 

The correct syntax is

issue in linkedIssues(DMC-24,"is a child of")

Hope it helps :) 

[Gavin]

thanks Daniel that did give the direction I was looking for 

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

linkedIssues(DMC-24,"is a child of")

is what you are looking for.

Hi Nic, I think we are talking on another thread about this similar issue.

In that thread I wasn't able to use linkedIssues for some reason.  Thought I'd try another work around.

project = XYZ AND issueLinkType = "is a child of" AND key=DMC-24

this only gets one of the child but there are multiple childs
