Max & Min of a Jira Filter ID

[Deleted user]

I am working on a Jira Utility which extracts data using the filter ID.

I want to understand is there is a max & min limit for these filter IDs. For e.g. In Jira Cloud I have noticed that it starts from -9 to -1 and then jumps to 10000, 10001 and so on.

This will help me putting in some validations on the filter IDs provided by the user.

Hello @[deleted] ,

It is using a DB feature for auto-increment keys somewhat described in:

• https://developer.atlassian.com/server/framework/atlassian-sdk/creating-entities/

The description of how the application handles the auto-increment sequencing value across batched items in the database can be seen at:

• Database - Change History: The SEQUENCE_VALUE_ITEM table

and the following Developer community post discusses the default filter ids as a really good referance point as well:

• https://community.developer.atlassian.com/t/get-jql-or-valid-filter-id-from-jira-default-filters/16645

Hope this help

Regards,
Earl
