How to delete Execution filter in JIRA?

Question

Currently, we can no longer Delete ‘Execution Filters’ that we have created.

For each Sprint, we must create Execution Filters which shows QA Progress for Tests which have been run.

As I can no longer delete previously created Execution Filters, the filter list is growing.
In addition, we can’t modify the filters, therefore, in order to create a new filter, you must select a previously existing filter, make your changes and then ‘Save As’.

Is there any way to bring back the Delete functionality?

The issue was reproduced at the SmartBear side and the appropriate defect was raised by them.

As far as i can see this is specific filters from Zephyr App. I've created such filter and then tried to delete it through "Manage Execution filters" section and no luck.

This page says that execution filters can be modified, shared, deleted etc. from the Manage Execution Filters page.

But when i click on any filter from this page it just runs the filter and not showing any preferences like "Share" ,"Edit" or "Delete".
I'm not sure but it seems to be there some issue with app and you probably should contact Zephyr Support.

You also mentioned that you can't update existing filter, only save as new.
You can update execution filter just like Jira filter by running it after you made any changes to existing filter, if the filter is correct(even if it returns no results) you will see that "Save" button is clickable now.

Hello Olexander, thanks a lot for your answer.

Unfortunatelly, the proposed solution doesn't work.

As it is shown in the screenshot above, I'm an Owner of 'test01' filter, when I run search via "View all filters" the 'No filters were found to match your search' is returned to me.
