# Issue Dependencies (Blocked By / Blocking)
|
|
|
|
Dependencies let you mark that an issue is blocked by another issue. This creates a formal dependency relationship visible in the UI and trackable via API. No MCP tools exist for dependencies; use REST or GraphQL directly.
|
|
|
|
## Using REST API
|
|
|
|
**List issues blocking this issue:**
|
|
```
|
|
GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues/{issue_number}/dependencies/blocked_by
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Add a blocking dependency:**
|
|
```
|
|
POST /repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues/{issue_number}/dependencies/blocked_by
|
|
Body: { "issue_id": 12345 }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `issue_id` is the numeric issue **ID** (not the issue number).
|
|
|
|
**Remove a blocking dependency:**
|
|
```
|
|
DELETE /repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues/{issue_number}/dependencies/blocked_by/{issue_id}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Using GraphQL
|
|
|
|
**Read dependencies:**
|
|
```graphql
|
|
{
|
|
repository(owner: "OWNER", name: "REPO") {
|
|
issue(number: 123) {
|
|
blockedBy(first: 10) { nodes { number title state } }
|
|
blocking(first: 10) { nodes { number title state } }
|
|
issueDependenciesSummary { blockedBy blocking totalBlockedBy totalBlocking }
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Add a dependency:**
|
|
```graphql
|
|
mutation {
|
|
addBlockedBy(input: {
|
|
issueId: "BLOCKED_ISSUE_NODE_ID"
|
|
blockingIssueId: "BLOCKING_ISSUE_NODE_ID"
|
|
}) {
|
|
blockingIssue { number title }
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Remove a dependency:**
|
|
```graphql
|
|
mutation {
|
|
removeBlockedBy(input: {
|
|
issueId: "BLOCKED_ISSUE_NODE_ID"
|
|
blockingIssueId: "BLOCKING_ISSUE_NODE_ID"
|
|
}) {
|
|
blockingIssue { number title }
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Tracked issues (read-only)
|
|
|
|
Task-list tracking relationships are available via GraphQL as read-only fields:
|
|
|
|
- `trackedIssues(first: N)` - issues tracked in this issue's task list
|
|
- `trackedInIssues(first: N)` - issues whose task lists reference this issue
|
|
|
|
These are set automatically when issues are referenced in task lists (`- [ ] #123`). There are no mutations to manage them.
