search all existing dashboards for use of a custom field

[Andrew Hewitson]

I need to rename a custom field which has been heavily used by multiple teams over the past 6 months.  Is there a fast way to search for all of the dashboards that are currently using that field?  Either as a column or as a filter?   Searching for where a custom field is used in queues would be useful to know as well.

@Andrew Hewitson There is not a delivered way to find custom fields used in filters or dashboards using those filters.  I believe individuals have used groovy scripts to find this information using the app ScriptRunner.  I am not sure if it was on server or cloud though.  Example: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/How-to-find-all-JIRA-filters-that-include-JQL-for-a-custom-field/qaq-p/732061
