Advanced JQL Keywords (Forge)

JQL Functions for Jira Cloud extends the power of Jira Query Language (JQL) by adding new keywords and custom functions to enhance your queries. With these tools, you can create precise filters to improve issue tracking and project management. Functions like ParentsOfIssuesInQuery() and ChildrenOfIssuesInQuery() allow users to trace parent-child relationships in Jira hierarchies, such as Epic → Story → Subtask. Similarly, functions targeting Epics (EpicsOfChildrenInQuery(), issuesInEpicCount) and Subtasks (ParentsOfSubtasksInQuery(), SubtasksOfParentsInQuery()) let you analyze parent-child relationships. Link functions (LinkedIssuesOfQuery()) enable searches based on issue links. These advanced tools help users gain deeper insights into their projects.
