I want to filter on a specific custom field where the content of the field contains "HC"

We have a custom field called application and a number of options under it that all contain "HC - " as part of their name as well as several other options.  I want to filter on only the options that contain HC.
I have tried "Application[Select List (cascading)] ~ "HC"  but I get the error message that the operator is not supported by that field.
Is there a way of searching on the partial text?

Hi @Judy Forrister , for this you would need to specify each entry, such as...

"Application[Select List (cascading)]" in (HC-xxx, HC-yyy, ...)

Also assuming you are using JQL advanced search I would start with Basic search as it saves typing as you can select the desired values. You can switch to advanced later if needed to complete the filter.
