Search for comments

[tomas lopez-rey]

Hello, I need that Jira show me through advanced search the tickets in which a certain user has made a comment, is it possible? How?

There are couple of solutions for that.. Most dedicated required a third party plugin like Script Runner where you have a special JQL function:

issueFunction in commented("by ExampleUser")

Without the plugins there is also an option to get this info via Activity Stream gadget..

#1 Go to Dashboard
#2 Add Gadget Activitiy Stream and put a global filter User is (username) and Project is (project)
#3 Add JIRA filter - Add Filter:  Activity is Comment Added
#4 Set "Limit to XX items" if you want to improve performance

What is the pattern of Username to put in the filter,  like full name (first name + space + last name) or  need quote "  " ?  I tried many ways but still did not work.
