Finding Owners of Specific Filters

Question

Hello Dear Atlassian Community,

I am new to Atlassian suite and just finished my partial training. I would like to seek a small help/suggestion.

I am working on a task where I need to change a and b status to a1 and b1. But these a and b names are being used in some filters by owner/users. So changing names will impact filters too.

I still want to proceed with name/status change and communicate with owners of filters which will get impacted.

The trouble is, how do I find the owners of these filters?

Please help if you have came across such scenario.

Thanks :)

If you are a site-admin click on the cog icon in upper right. Select System and scroll down in the sidebar to shared items and shared filters. In this view you can find the owners of all shared filters.

Hi @Shubham C ,

Below Jira REST API returns all filters. It returns jql for each filter too. Then you can search for a and b in the response.

Hi @Shubham C

Welcome to the community!

Look at the filter details in the database. There is no way to find that out from JIRA UI. Look at the search request table to figure out the details.
