Search and find your issues

Can't find the issue that you are looking for? This page will show you how to search for issues in Jira. Any user can search for issues, although they will only see issue results from projects where they can view issues (i.e. 'Browse Project' permission). In the following section, you'll learn how to run a search and use the search results.

Boards can display up to 5000 issues at a time. If your board is trying to display more than 5000 issues at once, you'll receive an error message, and be prompted to update your filters. For more information on editing your filters, see Configuring filters.

Using Jira's team-managed projects? Team-managed projects are being actively developed, which means you may not (yet) have access to the features described below.
