transitivelyLinkedIssues()

This function returns a list of issues that are directly or transitively linked to the current issue.

Transitively linked issues are issues which are indirectly linked to the current issue (e.g. which are linked to an issue which itself is linked to the current issue).


Bash
transitivelyLinkedIssues(linkTypes) #Output: Issue list


Examples

Parser expression

Description
Bash
transitivelyLinkedIssues("relates to")


This example returns an issue list with all issues that are directly or transitively linked to the current issue using the link type "relates to".

Consider the following example:

ISSUE-1 [relates to] ISSUE-2

ISSUE-2 [relates to] ISSUE-3

In this case ISSUE-3 is transitively linked to ISSUE-1.

The example would return [ISSUE-2, ISSUE-3].
