I had a user bring this to my attention earlier today. In using the
issue in linksHierarchyFilter(<filter number>, 3)
the query returns no results.
But when we add the third argument such as
issue in linksHierarchyFilter(<filter number, 3, outward)
we get data.
That seems somewhat counter-intuitive (at least to me). Has anyone else encountered this? If so, are there any suggested "tips and tricks" other than "include the 3rd argument?
Please advise. TIA!
Mhm, strange, according to https://issuu.com/kintosoft/docs/links-hierarchy-structure-user-guid page 20:
Also backed by the "official" documentation: https://kintosoft.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/LH/pages/51548138/JQL+functions#JQLfunctions-linksHierarchyFilter.1
This sounds like it should work without the 3rd argument, because 3rd argument is for exclusion.
I cannot claim that I'd have experience with these functions, but logically according to this, it sounds like a bug. I'd probably throw a ticket to the vendor if this was one of our users asking: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211022/links-hierarchy-full-dependency-viewer?hosting=datacenter&tab=support
