How to display Issue Type value in JQL?
Asked by Mayur:

We created a custom issue type called "Release Feature". This is working well.

I can pull bugs and stories from Jira just fine.

However, I want to also see the "Release feature" in the table of values. How do I do that?

Here is my jql now:

project = KR AND issuetype not in ("Release Feature") AND created \>= -1d ORDER BY status

The way we use Release feature is that we created a linked type and link any relevant bugs and stories to this release feature.

I want to display the Release feature key here

Here is how we link issues to the Release feature

body: It looks like maybe you are linking your other issue types to the "Release Feature" issuse type and you want to show in a columns the linked "Release Feature" issues. Is that correct?

comments: author: Davin Studer
body: It looks like in your top screenshot you are using the Jira macro in Confluence. So, if my above question is correct then in the Jira macro you would add "Linked Issues" in the "Display options" section of the macro properties.

Yes, exactly. I want to show the Release Feature by name, if it's a linked issue type for each of the issues shown

> then in the Jira macro you would add "Linked Issues" in the "Display options" section of the macro properties.

Well yes, but when I choose "Linked Issues", it only shows me the key, and not the key's name.

So for example, we have these Release Features setup so far:

![rf.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/53504i3BEC547339AA6B37/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "rf.png")

And when I do what you suggest, it shows me just the keys. I want to display the issue summary IF the linked issue is a Release Feature.

body: JQL is not SQL. It finds issues, it does not have anything to say about what is displayed when you use the JQL (apart from a suggested ordering)

You need to look at the configuration of the "report" that you are running the filter through. It's this reporting that chooses what fields to display.

The screenshot is missing too much for me to be sure what report it might be, but it does look like the "issue navigator". If it is that, then you can configure it (either your own default view, the view saved with a filter, or just the current one-off view) by using "configure fields" from the tools drop-down.

**Eh?** Sorry new to Jira and Conf. Cannot compute what you mean here.

**Here is a better screenshot.** I'm in Confluence, generating a report from Jira showing me all issues in the last 48 hours. This table shows all items except "Release Feature".

![docs.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/53500i7F7059E6D5631C56/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "docs.png")

++**What I'm trying to do** **is...**++

Get all issues from Jira (except of type "Release Feature") created in the last 48 hours, and **show the Release feature name, IF it's a linked issue** for each of the issues shown here.

**The last part is where I'm stuck**

body: I would imagine it would be under the issue type column since it's an issue type. The column that says "T".

comments: author: Mayur
body: The issue type just indicates an icon, and doesn't give me the information I seek

I'm trying to **display Issue name, if issue type = "Release Feature"**


author: Mayur
body: See information above
