How to create a filter for "Projects" only

Erik Beltran

Hi Everyone,
I am fairly new to Jira. Is it possible to create a filter (JQL) for projects only? I am interested to see all the actual projects, names, project manager, category, project type, etc.

Not sure if this is a limitation at this time? I can create filters for issues, epics, tasks, custom fields, etc but not able to do it at project level. I have seen a couple of suggestions to use 3rd-party add-ons but i wonder if this is doable using Jira native filters before testing solutions that might need extra spending ($$)

Hi @Erik Beltran

JQL is used to filter issues, so those are always the focus with that feature. There isn't a query for projects.

To see a list of all projects to which you have access, from the top navigation please select Projects > View All Projects.

If you wanted to get all the project data to build a report, you may call the REST API to get the JSON information:

Best regards,

Bill

Thank you Bill, this indeed is great help.

I will get myself familiar with Jira API. Seems the best way to go for now.

Thanks,

Hi @Erik Beltran ,

You can search for projects with Profields, if you want to know more you can see how it works in this video:

Track, categorize and make decisions through different views. Create new properties to follow up on your project status, due dates, people involved and much more!.

I hope it helps!

Hi @Leo Diaz - Deiser Thank you for your input. I will start a trial with this Add-on. Seems to solve a lot of problems without having to code. There is just one thing probably you could help me. How can i see the options you show on the video in the upper right?

Hi @Erik Beltran ,
