Hi,

I am almost sure it's not possible.

But as a workaround, you can create specific Atlassian groups on the Admin side (if you are an admin) for your project and the different project roles, add all existing users to these groups and query with the following JQL syntax :
assignee in membersOf("groupname-for-your-project-role")

Maybe, you can filter better with this function too :

Hope it helps

Hi @Prashanth

This isn't available in native JQL at this point - there is a feature request you can vote for though, check out JRACLOUD-21711

You can search by Group if that's a potential alternative? EG.

assignee in membersOf("Administrators")

Hey There,

You could accomplish this by creating a "Project role" custom field with the designations you need, and use that in your filters.

In Jira Query Language (JQL), you can use the issueFunction to filter issues based on the project role of the assignees. Below is an example JQL query that you can use to find a list of issues where the assignees belong to a specific project role:

issueFunction in membersOf("Project Role Name")
