Extended Search

Extended Search allows you to search through your Jira instance using JQL with additional functions. There are many occasions when standard Jira search is too limiting. Follow the next section to learn how to use Extended search.

Usage

  1. In the top bar in Jira, select Apps > JQL Search Extensions. The Extended Search page is displayed in a new tab.

  2. In the query input field, type a JQL query and press Search or hit Enter.

You can use additional functions provided by JQL Search Extensions. For example, to find all issues with a summary starting with “Hello”, type issue in wildcardMatch("summary", "Hello*").

Using the results in Jira search

You can save your Extended Search query as a Jira filter. After you perform your search, click Save the query as a filter.

See Extended Search filters to learn more about using and sharing filters.
