Hey Everyone! In the month of February we did a series on JQL at atlassianblog.wpengine.com. It’s a quickstart guide to making the transition from simple searching to advanced searching in Jira. JQL is the most efficient way to access issues at all levels in Jira.
- Intro to Jira Query Language (JQL) – 1 of 4
- JQL Functions and Searching Change History – 2 of 4
- Places in Jira to use JQL – 3 of 4
- Extensions in the marketplace that extend the JQL language – 4 of 4
Protip:
One pointer for the Jira Admins… when making changes to custom fields, Jira shows a message to re-index data to include the new custom field changes. Don’t ignore that message! Failure to re-index Jira can lead to JQL searches that don’t have the latest data from your Jira instance.
Search early, search often. Go JQL!
