Performing a basic search

New search

Screenshot: Example criteria for a basic search

To perform a new basic search in JIRA:

1. The issue navigator will be displayed.
   
   • 既存の検索条件がある場合は、New filter (新しいフィルター)ボタンをクリックして検索条件をリセットします。
   • If the Switch to Basic link is showing, click it to switch to basic searching. 
2. Enter the criteria for the search. You can search against specific fields and/or search for specific text, as described below:
   
   • Searching against specified fields — To search against specified fields, you need to select the fields then specify the fields values that you want to find.
     
     1. Select fields as criteria — The Project, Issue Type, Status and Assignee fields are always available as criteria. If you want to search using additional fields as criteria, click More Criteria and tick the desired fields.
        Can't find the field you want? Field is displaying greyed out text? See the Troubleshooting section below.

     2. Specify the value for each field — Click the field criterion and tick/enter the desired value in the dropdown. If the desired value is not shown in the list, start typing the name of value the to filter the list.
        
        About the suggested users/groups for the Assignee and Reporter fields — A user/group will be suggested if you have recently selected them in an Assignee/Reporter field for an issue, or viewed the user's profile page.

   • Searching against specified text — Enter the desired text in the 'Contains text' text box and press Enter/Return on your keyboard. The Summary, Description, Comments, Environment fields and all text-based custom fields will be searched. You can use modifiers in your search text, such as wildcards and logical operators, see Performing Text Searches.
     
3. The search results will automatically update, as you enter search criteria, unless your administrator has disabled automatic updates of search results. If so, you will need to click the Update button on the field dropdown after every change.

Saved search

Search results are saved as 'issue filters'. For details, see Saving Searches ('Issue Filters'). Screenshot: List of filters on issue navigator

トラブルシューティング

• Why can't I find the field I want to choose as a criterion? Some fields are only valid for a particular project/issue type context(see Configuring Fields and Screensfor details). For these fields, you must select the project/issue type that the field is applicable to. Otherwise, the field will not be available for selection (even if you set the Project and Issue Type set to 'All'). In the example below, the 'Customer account' field is only available in the 'Angry Nerds' project.

  Available field:

  Unavailable field:

• Why are the field criteria displaying in grey text? Some fields are only valid for a particular project/issue type context (see Configuring Fields and Screensfor details). If you choose a field in your search, then remove all projects/issue types that reference the field, then the field will be invalid. The invalid field will not apply to your search and will display in grey text. In the example below, the 'Customer account' field has been selected and then the project changed from 'Angry Nerds' to 'JIRA development'.

  Valid field:

  Invalid field:

• Why is there a red exclamation mark next to my field criteria? Some field values are only valid for a particular project/issue type context. For example, you may have configured a project to use a status 'In QA Review' in its workflow. If you select this project and status in your search, then change the search to filter for a project that doesn't use 'In QA Review', the status will be invalid and ignored in the search.
  
  
  
• Why don't my search results automatically update? Your search results will always update automatically whenever any fields are changed, provided that your administrator has not disabled automatic updates of search results. Ask your administrator whether they have disabled automatic updates of search results.
