Jira Quick-filter to show all task with subtasks assigned to current user

Question

Currently, I have a quick filter to show me my task that does this:

assignee = currentUser()

This works ok, but doesn\'t show me tasks that are

Answer 1

In addition to @Kuf's answer, it's sometimes much simpler to write the whole thing in one query especially with Swimlanes or Quick-Filters in Greenhopper, rather than creating and saving custom filter.

For instance, to show Un-finished Issues or Sub-tasks in one quick-filter on Greenhopper:

status!=Closed or issue in parentIssuesFromQuery("issuetype in subtaskIssueTypes() AND status!=Closed ")

Answer 2

Create a filter for all of your subtask from the following JQL:

issuetype in subtaskIssueTypes() and assignee = currentUser()

Then, using Craftforge JQL Functions Plugin, use the following JQL to find their parents:

issue in parentIssuesFromFilter("filter name or its id")

Answer 3

The following query will return all parent tasks, which have sub-tasks assigned to the current user. (The parent task need not be assigned to current user)

issueFunction in parentsOf("assignee = currentUser() ")

Note: issueFunction requires the ScriptRunner plugin and it's not free.

Answer 4

Navigate to Issues (in header) > Search for issues, then enter your search criteria.
