Issues exceeding the limit of linked objects

This insight checks whether any of your Jira issues is linked to over 20 objects from Assets. When you exceed the limit, your migration will be blocked by a pre-migration check in Jira Cloud Migration Assistant.

What’s the recommendation?

You need to reduce the number of linked objects in each affected issue to unblock your migration.


Clean up linked objects

If you have issues that exceed the number of linked objects, perform a cleanup.

View affected issues

When viewing this recommendation in Portfolio insights, you'll be able to view the JQL query that contains issue IDs. 

If the number of issue IDs in your query is very high, you might receive an error, because JQL can accept only up to 6,000 characters. If you encounter this problem, divide the IDs from your query into multiple queries by following this syntax:

id in (ID1, ID2, ID3)

To use the query:

  1. Copy the query from Portfolio insights.

  2. In Jira, go to Issues > Search for issues

  3. Paste the query and select Search. All affected issues will be displayed on the list.

Clean up linked objects

You need to bring the number of linked objects in each affected issue below the limit. 

  1. Open each affected issues returned by the JQL query provided in Portfolio insights.

  2. In the Details section, find the Assets custom field.

  3. Edit the field and remove additional objects.
