JQL developmentcommits.all not working
Platform Notice: Cloud Only - This article only applies to Atlassian products on the cloud platform.
Summary
Unable to use the development searches in the Global issues search.
1
Error observed as "The operator '>' is not supported by the 'development' field"
Environment
Jira cloud
Cause
The root cause is due to a custom field with the name "Development" causing the error message. Development is stored in entity properties by the DVCS plugin. Custom fields have higher priority than entity properties, so the custom field and its supported operators win the race, landing up in error as such.
Solution
To avoid this problem, the viable workaround we see is to rename the custom field "Development" to another name
