# Related issues **(STARTER)**
|
|
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/merge_requests/1797) in [GitLab Starter](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 9.4.
|
|
|
|
Related issues are a bi-directional relationship between any two issues
|
|
and appear in a block below the issue description. Issues can be across groups
|
|
and projects.
|
|
|
|
The relationship only shows up in the UI if the user can see both issues.
|
|
|
|
## Adding a related issue
|
|
|
|
You can relate one issue to another by clicking the related issues "+" button
|
|
in the header of the related issue block. Then, input the issue reference number
|
|
or paste in the full URL of the issue.
|
|
|
|
Issues of the same project can be specified just by the reference number.
|
|
Issues from a different project require additional information like the
|
|
group and the project name. For example:
|
|
|
|
- same project: `#44`
|
|
- same group: `project#44`
|
|
- different group: `group/project#44`
|
|
|
|
Valid references will be added to a temporary list that you can review.
|
|
When ready, click the green "Add related issues" button to submit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Removing a related issue
|
|
|
|
In the related issues block, click the "x" icon on the right-side of each issue
|
|
token that you wish to remove. Due to the bi-directional relationship, it
|
|
will no longer appear in either issue.
