I want to be easily query closed issues that have left the kanban board? It is a bit convoluted. When I search for older request it brings me to a search page with automatically populated coding in the search bar. This encompasses more than just the Legal Jira cards my team is responsible for. Is there anyway to make this easier or create a quick filter? We have the need to review old issues sometimes when legal issues occur post contract signing.

Hi @OOO till 10/23 Trish Scherb covering -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

From your board, you could select the link "Looking for an older issue" to see the list of some issues...depending upon your board setup and filters.

Another way is to learn about JQL (Jira Query Language) and built the filters to find such issues, focused on just what you want to see.  For example, let's say you wanted to find the issues for your project finished in the last 30days that could be something like this:

project=myProjectName AND statusCategory=Done AND resolved>=-30d

Once you create a filter that helps, you may save it for reuse...and even "subscribe" so it regularly sends you the issue list.
