I'm using the On Demand version of Jira. I need a filter that will show me:

All issues within a particular epic AND all sub tasks of those issues.

So effectively:

  • Epic
    • Story 1
      • Sub Task 1
      • Sub Task 2
    • Defect 1
    • Story 2
      • Sub Task 3
      • Sub Task 4
      • Defect 2

Plugins are not an option here as I'm using the OnDemand version. Any suggestions on how I can achieve the above without having to link all sub tasks to the epic?

    I could publish my atlassian-connect addon (which you could install on the on-demand instance) for such filtering. Will do it if this comment gets 10 useful flags (to be sure someone else also needs it) – Vitalii Zurian Aug 23 '14 at 21:43

Question is quite old but since 13 January 2017 Jira Cloud (previously OnDemand) supports a parentEpic:

parentEpic = Epic-1

this will find the epic itself, with all the stories/tasks in the epic and their sub-tasks, it was previously not possible without installing add-ons.

With JIRA OnDemand, you are severely limited in the kinds of queries you can run. OnDemand and self-hosted actually have same default JQL features, but the self-hosted does allow for a ton of add-ons for JQL.

I've solved this problem personally by first using the JIRA CLI to get a dump of all the issues in a project into a local CSV. Then, I use csvkit to make tables/CSV that I actually need (i.e. All descendant issues of a parent epic).

I think following query will help you to get expecting result:

project = project name AND "Epic Link" = 'epic name'..
