How do I Filter on reporter

[Michael_Felkins]

I want to view JIRA issues by a specific reporter.

Go to advanced search, enter the following and replace with the username:

reporter = "username"

Thank you, that worked

It's also pretty handy sometimes to use

reporter=currentuser()

for tables where everyone can check their own issues.

Another handy one is 

reporter in organizationMembers(customer name)

especially for Service Manager projects.

Doesn't work for me. When I type `reporter=dirk` in Backlog search field the results are empty. Any tricks here ?

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist- · Accepted solution]

Go to "search issues".

JQL is "reporter = x", and the basic search has the reporter field.

Just surround the searched key-word with single quote marks if it contains any special chars.

NOTE: Regarding the field on which you are operating it would be good if you check the docs so you know which operators are supported for you (that can be found on this link https://support.atlassian.com/jira-core-cloud/docs/advanced-search-reference-jql-fields/)
