Links and Relationships

These JQL functions help to identify blockers, dependencies, and linked tasks.

The Issue Link functions use issue link attributes to sort through issues. The Epic functions filter via epic links and the Sub-task functions return sub-tasks of issues, or parents of sub-tasks.

Using the NOT keyword

When using a negative search, you can use the not keyword before or after issueFunction as shown in the following examples:

project = "KEY" and not issueFunction in linkedIssuesOfRecursive("component='componentName'", "depends on")

project = "KEY" and issueFunction not in linkedIssuesOfRecursive("component='componentName'", "depends on")
