linkedIssuesOf()

Description:

Searches issues linked to the given subquery. Additionally you can further refine your query by specifying a link type.

Note:
Since you need to enclose the provided subquery using doble quotes, you must to escape any doble quotes using in the subquery by preceding a backslash after the double quotes, alternatively you can use a single quote in some cases.

Let's see an example...

This will not work

issue IN linkedIssuesOf("status = "Under Review" and type = Bug")

^{Searches issues linked to Bug that are currently being reviewing}

This will work perfectly

issue IN linkedIssuesOf("status = \"Under Review\" and type = Bug")

^{Searches issues linked to Bug that are currently being reviewing}

issue IN linkedIssuesOf("status = 'Under Review' and type = Bug")

^{Searches issues linked to Bug that are currently being reviewing}

Syntax	linkedIssuesOf(subquery) linkedIssuesOf(subquery, link) ^{Where 'link' can also be any of the existing system links:}^{'is Epic of', 'has Epic', 'jira_subtask_inward' and 'jira_subtask_outward'}
