Variant where you can additionally specify a minimum of issues that need to be linked, fulfilling the given link types.

linkedIssuesOf(subquery, linkTypes, minimumLinked) #Output: Issue list

Imagine the following example:

Image Removed

The computation of that JQL would be as follows:

  1. Grab all issues that fulfill the JQL "project = WEB" and take their linked issues → SOF-1, SOF-2, SOF-3, SOF-4, SOF-5
  2. Only grab the issues linked with link type "blocks" → SOF-1, SOF-2, SOF-3
  3. Only grab those issues where at least 2 issues are linked to the same issue → SOF-1, SOF-2

So the final result of that JQL would be SOF-1 and SOF-2.
