When using JQL search features, can you search for a letter number combination such as "324DR"?

I have tried using text ~ "324DR" but that doesn't work.

Hi @Simeon Humphries,

welcome to the community!

Does 324DR occur as a "word" in itself, or is it part of a longer sequence of letters, like e.g. something324DRsomething?

Best,

It appears like "something-324DR-something". Thanks

Welcome to the community, @Simeon Humphries 

The JQL field "text" searches the summary, description, environment, comments, and custom text fields of types "free text field", "text field", and "read-only text field."

I wonder if you're looking for data in a drop-down or some other field type like a calculated field.

You can also search in a specific field, like:

field ~ "324DR"

Hi Jim,

I am trying to search titles of stories, epics etc. I tried using summary ~ "324DR" but that hasn't worked. Thanks
