JQL Search Examples for /jira-search

Quick Reference

The /jira-search command automatically prepends project = SRVKP AND to your query, so you can keep searches concise!

/jira-search status=Blocked
→ Expands to: project = SRVKP AND status=Blocked

To search other projects, include project in your query:

/jira-search project=KONFLUX AND assignee=currentUser()

JQL Operators

Operator Meaning Example
= Equals status = "To Do"
!= Not equals status != Done
> Greater than priority > Minor
< Less than created < -30d
>= Greater or equal updated >= -7d
<= Less or equal created <= "2026-01-01"
IN In list status IN ("To Do", "In Progress")
NOT IN Not in list type NOT IN (Epic, Sub-task)
~ Contains summary ~ "authentication"
!~ Not contains description !~ "deprecated"
IS EMPTY Field empty assignee IS EMPTY
IS NOT EMPTY Field set "Epic Link" IS NOT EMPTY

JQL Functions

Function Description Example
currentUser() Current user assignee = currentUser()
startOfDay() Start of today created >= startOfDay()
endOfDay() End of today created <= endOfDay()
startOfWeek() Start of this week updated >= startOfWeek()
startOfMonth() Start of this month created >= startOfMonth()
now() Current time updated >= now() - 1h

Date Formats

Format Example Description
-Nd -7d N days ago
-Nw -2w N weeks ago
-Nm -1m N months ago
YYYY-MM-DD 2026-01-15 Specific date
"YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM" "2026-01-15 14:30" Date and time

Sorting

Add ORDER BY to sort results:

# By priority (highest first)
/jira-search status!=Done ORDER BY priority DESC

# By creation date (newest first)
/jira-search assignee=currentUser() ORDER BY created DESC

# Multiple fields
/jira-search type=Bug ORDER BY priority DESC, created ASC

Tips

  1. Quote multi-word values: status = "Code Review"
  2. Quote field names with spaces: "Epic Link" = SRVKP-1000
  3. Use currentUser(): Instead of your username
  4. Combine with AND/OR: Build complex queries
  5. Test incrementally: Start simple, add conditions

Common Patterns

My work today:

/jira-search assignee=currentUser() AND updated >= startOfDay()

Needs attention:

/jira-search assignee=currentUser() AND status IN (Blocked, Waiting, "Code Review")

Team capacity:

/jira-search assignee=EMPTY AND status="To Do" AND priority IN (Major, Critical)

Cleanup candidates:

/jira-search status="To Do" AND assignee=EMPTY AND created <= -90d

Project-Specific Searches

Remember: These automatically get project = SRVKP AND prepended!

For other projects:

/jira-search project=KONFLUX AND status=Blocked

Multiple projects:

/jira-search project IN (SRVKP, KONFLUX) AND assignee=currentUser()
