JQL lets you search for a value in a specific field. Each field in Jira has a corresponding JQL name. If you’ve made a custom field, you’ll be asked to name the field.
In a clause, a field is followed by an operator, which in turn is followed by one or more values (or functions). The operator compares the value of the field with one or more values or functions on the right, such that only true results are retrieved by the clause. It's not possible to compare two fields in JQL.
Search for issues that are assigned to a particular affects version(s). You can search by version name or version ID (i.e. the number that Jira automatically allocates to a version). Note, it is better to search by version ID than by version name. Different projects may have versions with the same name. It is also possible for your Jira administrator to change the name of a version, which could break any saved filters that rely on that name. Version IDs, however, are unique and cannot be changed.

Search for types of change gating that are used in change requests. "Tracked-only" requests are produced by integrations that stand separately from a change management process.

Note, it is safer to search by component ID than by component name. Different projects may have components with the same name, so searching by component name may return issues from multiple projects. It is also possible for your Jira administrator to change the name of a component, which could break any saved filters that rely on that name.

Use one of the following formats:
"yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm"
"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm"
"yyyy/MM/dd"

Or use "w" (weeks), "d" (days), "h" (hours) or "m" (minutes) to specify a date relative to the current time. The default is "m" (minutes). Be sure to use quote-marks ("); if you omit the quote-marks, the number you supply will be interpreted as milliseconds after epoch (1970-1-1).

Only applicable if your Jira administrator has created one or more custom fields.
Search for issues where a particular custom field has a particular value. You can search by custom field name or custom field ID (i.e. the number that Jira automatically allocates to a custom field).
Note, it is safer to search by custom field ID than by custom field name. It is possible for a custom field to have the same name as a built-in Jira system field; in which case, Jira will search for the system field (not your custom field). It is also possible for your Jira administrator to change the name of a custom field, which could break any saved filters that rely on that name. Custom field IDs, however, are unique and cannot be changed.
For multiple choice and dropdown custom fields, you can search by both option value and option ID. However, for performance reasons, when using closedSprints(), futureSprints(), and openSprints(), you can only search by option value. For example, if closedSprints() were to return 16, the following query:
1
"customField1[Dropdown]" in (12, closedSprints())
would search for option values 12 and 16 and ID 12.

As of February 2024, Epic link function has been retired in favor of Parent. Existing filters that use the Epic link function still function, but you’ll need to use Parent when creating new filters.
Jump down to the Parent section of this page.
You can use a saved filter to narrow your search. You can search by filter name or filter ID (i.e. the number that Jira automatically allocates to a saved filter).
Note:
It is safer to search by filter ID than by filter name. It is possible for a filter name to be changed, which could break a saved filter that invokes another filter by name. Filter IDs, however, are unique and cannot be changed.
An unnamed link statement in your typed query will override an ORDER BY statement in the saved filter.
You can’t run or save a filter that would cause an infinite loop (i.e. you can’t reference a saved filter if it eventually references your current filter).

Jira issue link types have the following properties:
Name: The title for the link type
Outward description: The description of how an issue affects other issues
Inward description: The description of how an issue is affected by other issues
For example, a link type could have the following properties:
Name: Problem/Incident
Outward description: causes
Inward description: is caused by
When searching issueLinkType, Jira searches all three properties. This can mean you're unable to isolate issues with a specific inward or outward description if the link type's name and either of the descriptions are the same. This is the case for the default "Blocks" link type, where the name and outward description are "blocks".
If you need to be able to search specifically for issues with an outward description of "blocks", for example, a Jira administrator must change the name of the link type to something else. If you're a Jira admin, take a look at Configuring issue linking for more info.
Search for issues tagged with a label or list of labels. You can also search for issues without any labels to easily identify which issues need to be tagged so they show up in the relevant sprints, queues or reports.

Only available if time-tracking has been enabled by your Jira administrator.

Search for issues that have a particular issue type. You can search by issue type name or issue type ID (i.e. the number that Jira automatically allocates to an issue type).
Note, it is safer to search by type ID than type name. It is possible for your Jira administrator to change the name of a type, which could break any saved filter that rely on that name. Type IDs, however, are unique and cannot be changed.

Search for issues that were last updated on, before, or after a particular date (or date range). Note that if a time-component is not specified, midnight will be assumed. Please note that the search results will be relative to your configured time zone (which is by default the Jira server's time zone).
Use one of the following formats:
"yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm"
"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm"
"yyyy/MM/dd"
"yyyy-MM-dd"
Or use "w" (weeks), "d" (days), "h" (hours) or "m" (minutes) to specify a date relative to the current time. The default is "m" (minutes). Be sure to use quote-marks ("); if you omit the quote-marks, the number you supply will be interpreted as milliseconds after epoch (1970-1-1).
