Does editing a Release Name dynamically change Filters?

Question

Hello, a quick question on editing a Release Name,   If you have existing Filters using the existing release name and you edit/change that name does it also edit the Filters?

Example)  Release Name = GA we change it to GA-CodeName    we have a Filter called "All GA Epics" and it has a search criteria of "AND fixVersion = GA"  once we edit the Release Name to GA-CodeName will that filter automatically change to "AND fixVersion = GA-CodeName"

Thank you, Mark

Yes, but it is a little bit tricky to find it out. It is for example visible in the URL, when you click on the release name and view the release detail.

URL should look like:

https://your-site.atlassian.net/projects/KEY/versions/10000/tab/release-report-all-issues

10000 = release id

Hi Hana, when you say release ID is that a field in the release?     I only see Name, Start Date, Release Date, and Description as fields that make up a release.    How do you access the ID?

Thank you,

Mark

One more thing - you can use release id instead of name, something like:

fixVersion = 10000

Then it doesn't matter, how the release is named and you can change it anytime, but is not clear from the JQL at the first sight, which release are you referring to.
