Summary

Understand and fix an issue in Jira Cloud that prevents you from seeing issues for a quick filter on the board.

Environment

Jira

Steps to take, if you are experiencing this problem

  • The first step would be to check using the JQL used for the filter to see if the issues are returning through the Advanced search ( Issue navigator).

  • If you can see the issues using JQL, then look at the status of the issues returned- Are they Done and older than 2 weeks?

  • Time to look at the board settings, to see if you have a setting to hide completed issues older than 2 weeks in the board.

Solution

The board had the setting to hide completed issues older than 2 weeks. You can find this option under Board settings > General.
