Retrieve work items with Assignee member of a Team (using JQL)

Hi There 👋,

 

❓I would like to retrieve all work items where the assignee is member of a team using JQL.

❗With Groups you can use Assignee in MembersOf("GROUPNAME")?

🥺It doesn't seem to work with the Team. 

💡Any suggestions? 

 

Thank you for your insights! 💐

Hey @Ward Schwillens_ Schwillie

Currently it's not possible to retrieve the work items assigned to the members of a team.

We have a feature request to track this: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-95266

You may add your vote or feedback by commenting on the above ticket.

The workaround is to create a group with the same members as the team, and use Assignee in MembersOf("GROUPNAME"), as you've already pointed.

 

Thanks!

It's not currently possible.

 

There is a feature request open for this though - https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-95266

Hello @Ward Schwillens_ Schwillie 

Use this: 

assignee IN membersOf("GROUP NAME")

There is a difference between Teams and groups. They are not the same. For groups you can find assignees, for Teams you cannot.
