Create charts using sub-issues
You can track the metrics of your linear sub-issues as you would track the metrics of your top-level issues. By setting a filter, you can set screenful charts to display information about your sub-issues, top-level issues, or both.

Creating charts from both Linear issues and sub-issues
You can create charts based on tour top-level issues or sub-issues. Here’s an example Task List that contains both issues and sub-issues of a Linear project:
The rightmost column shows the item type: Issue or Sub-issue.
With the charts that support grouping, you can also group data by item type. This can be helpful if you want to track the number of issues and sub-issues in your projects:
Here’s the resulting chart:

Rolling up values from sub-issues
You can roll up values from sub-issues by selecting Parent as the row in the Table chart.
Now each row in the table corresponds to the top-level issue, and the metrics shown in columns are the summaries from the sub-issues. For example, a column can show the total number of sub-issues for a parent, the total number of completed sub-issues, or the number of story points assigned to sub-issues.
The columns are configurable, so you can roll up any available metrics from sub-issues. The progress bar can be used to show the completion percentage of the sub-issues. It can be added to the chart by applying a formula:

Filtering by sub-issues
In the chart settings, you can include or exclude sub-issues using the item type filter:
Clicking Set filter opens the filter modal:
When you select Sub-issue, the chart is filtered accordingly.
Similarly, you can also filter by sub-issues’ parents (top-level issues):
