Quick Filters

Quick Filters allow you to apply commonly used filters with the click of a button. This way, you can quickly focus on a specific subset of issues within the structure. For example, you could filter for:

issues in a specific status
unresolved issues
issues assigned to you
issues related to a specific person, project, sprint, release, etc.

Structure with an Unresolved Quick Filter

Unlike the JQL Filter Generator, Quick Filters make temporary, local adjustment to the structure, without changing it for everyone else. If someone opens the same structure while you have a filter applied, they will still see the original structure.

You must have Control access for a structure to create or edit Quick Filters.

Adding a Quick Filter to a Structure

There are two ways to add a quick filter to a Structure:

Add an Existing Quick Filter

To apply an existing Quick Filter to a structure, open the Saved dropdown and select the Quick Filter you want to use.

Create a New Quick Filter

To create a new Quick Filter, click the Quick Filter icon and configure your filter.

Filter options:

Name - This is the name that will be displayed on the Quick Transformations panel.
JQL query - Enter the query that will be used to filter items. Items that match the query will remain in the structure.
Keep non-issues - If selected, non-issue items, such as flex items, will remain in the structure, even if they do not match the query.
Show all sub-items of matching items - If selected, sub-items of any item that matches the query will remain in the structure.
Filter on level - Select which level within the hierarchy the filter should be applied to. To apply the filter to all levels, select All levels.

Once you've configured the Quick Filter, click Create.

Quick Transformations are created for the current structure only. If you change to another structure, it may have different Quick Transformations available. If you reopen a structure where you've previously created Quick Transformations, they will still be available (provided no one else has deleted them).

Saving a Quick Filter

You can save Quick Filters to use again later. Once it’s saved, you can deactivate the filter and find it later in the Saved list.

To add a new Quick Filter to the Saved list, click the Quick Filter’s name and select Save filter.

Example Quick Filters

Not sure how you might use Quick Filters? Here are some of our most popular examples, along with the JQL necessary to make them work:

Only show unresolved issues: resolution is empty
Show issues assigned to the current user: assignee = currentUser()
Show only highest priority issues: priority = highest
Show issues for a specific project: project = [PROJECT NAME]
Show issues for a specific sprint: sprint = [SPRINT NAME]
Show issues for s specific fixVersion: fixVersion = [FIXVERSION NAME]
Show issues for a specific team: team = [TEAM NAME]
Show issues for a specific person: assignee = [USER'S NAME]
