Issue searches containing "issueLinkType" may not work depending on the amount of existing links

      Issue Summary

      JQL searches that include the issueLinkType field may not work depending on the amount of issues and links that exist.

      Environment

      Cloud

      • This behavior does not change between the new and old issue view

      Steps to Reproduce

      Although this problem does not occur always, it may happen in instances with a considerably high amount of issues (i.e. 300k+ issues).

      1. To replicate, run a simple search containing the issueLinkType field
        • Example: issueLinkType is not EMPTY

      Expected Results

      Search returns issues that match search criteria

      Actual Results

      An error saying "An unknown error occurred while trying to perform a search."

      A failed request with a response code of "JQL too complex" may be returned in the Browser's console

      Workaround

      Limiting the search criteria may be a valid workaround.

      • Example: project = <Project A> and issueLinkType is not EMPTY

      In case that search does not work, it is possible to try a different approach:

      • Create a filter filter like: issueLinkType is EMPTY;
      • Perform the search like the following: project = <project> AND filter != "filter"

            I believe this issue is a duplicate of JRACLOUD-73640 – JQL issueLinkType is inconsistent when using != or NOT IN operators

            I recommend that watchers of this issue vote on and watch the above issue. So that votes aren't split, I believe this ticket should be closed, but I will wait a week before taking any action in case anyone thinks both issues should continue to exist. Thank you!
