Link types should be read "Issues (from first step) [link type] selected issue(s)".

In other words, the issues from the first step are the "source" of the link and the chosen issue(s) in this step will be the "destination".

The final step is a confirmation screen to sum-up the upcoming bulk action :

FAQ

What happens if the destination issue for my links is part of the selection?

All issues will be linked with that one with the exception of that issue itself. Self-linking is therefore skipped automatically.

Summary page is empty?

If your summary page doesn’t display a success or an error message then no bulk operation was compatible with the selection you have made.
