How do I create a Quick Filter on the Team field from Backlog

Low Darren February 8, 2023

I have a need to create a Quick Filter that shows all the Issues in a Backlog were the Team field is populated with a specific team. 

I have tried various option I sourced on the internet and nothing displays 

example ---     Team = "My Team Name"

 

Any suggestions

Hi @Low Darren,

It seems that the team field you are referring to is the Team from Advanced Roadmaps. If so, you should search by the team's ID rather than its name.

To find out what ID you need for your team, navigate to Filters > Advanced issue search and in advanced search mode type the exact search you are trying to do: Team = "Your team name". As soon as you run the search, you'll see the team name being replaced by a number. It is that number that you should use in the quick filter for your board.

Hope this helps!

@Low Darren,

Regarding your comment that you don't get an ID when searching:

 I do not get a Field ID 

Could it be that you have more than one Team field in your Jira instance? In a test instance, I am getting this for the Advanced Roadmaps field:

"Team[Team]" = Vipers        and it populated with my number

Hi @Low Darren,

@Walter Buggenhout has pointed out one of the problems with the Team implementation. We implemented a custom select list (single choice) field we call "Agile Team" long before Atlassian introduced the "Team" field. We can can use the team names in JQL. We've also defined Jira groups with names that match the choices on the list. It's a little more work to administer, but the resulting ease of use more than makes up for it. We tried Teams when they became available, but due to the many quirks and limitations, we reverted to our Agile Team field and haven't looked back.
