Issue with JQL Query filter KANBANBOARD

[Tiago Pereira]

A fellow colleague from my company complained that since the migration to cloud the KANBANBOARD related to his project stopped working, when trying to use already existent JQL filter (project =PDP and issuetype"Epic Link" = PDP-715 AND issueFunction not in hasSubtasks() OR project = PDP AND issueFunction in subtasksOf("'Epic Link' = 'PDP-715'")  I get this error message "Error in the JQL Query: Expecting operator but got 'Epic Link'. The valid operators are '=', '!=', '<', '>', '<=', '>=', '~', '!~', 'IN', 'NOT IN', 'IS' and 'IS NOT'. (line 1, character 27).

I can't also switch to basic filter, could you please support w/ this?

Hi @Tiago Pereira and welcome to the community,

The message is correct, and your JQL has a minor error after "issuetype". You write

......issuetype"Epic Link" = ...

Which doesn't make any sense.

Your JQL, in case you want to use issue type should be something like:

(project =PDP and issuetype = "Task" AND "Epic Link" = PDP-715 AND issueFunction not in hasSubtasks() OR project = PDP AND issueFunction in subtasksOf("'Epic Link' = 'PDP-715'")

@Tiago Pereira to reply to your answer:

But the "issueFunction" seems to not be present on the Syntax list.

The error produced on your post, clearly states a problem with "Epic Link", due to the missing AND/OR operator. This is one problem.

If you encounter a problem with issueFunction, is due to the fact that scriptrunner in cloud (and JQL) doesn't work like on the server. Scriptrunner cloud provide a different "search page", called enhanced search:

Hi Alex issue w/ Epic link is gone but now when trying to search w/ full JQL I get an parsing time out error, not sure how to solve this.

Also used the issue function option you showed seems to be correct I believe

ON your JQL use parenthesis to narrow down your results. In addition consider if you actually need the below statement, as it will return all subtasks: 

issueFunction in subtaskOf("")

And one more advise would be to start adding jql statements bit-by-bit and see what is causing the problem.

@Tiago Pereira first of all, it would be great if you could reply beneath my reply, on this post of mine :)

Second of all, id depends what issues would want to yield. What is the requirement of the JQL? What issues are you trying to find?

How about the  "hasSubtasks()" is it the same as the option we have on the issue function?
