Search issues by label on an agile board

fcorreia

On the backlog view, there's a search box to the left of the quick filters (see screenshot below). How do I use this search box to find issues by label?

I've tried entering these queries, but no issues were found in any of the cases, even though the first two work when searching through the issues search (i.e., the "Issues" top menu):

labels=<label_name>
labels in (<label_name>)
<label_name>
label=<label_name>

That search goes through summaries by keyword. It's not a JQL query bar, so you can't specify a field.

Quick Filters and Swimlanes (in the active sprints view) support JQL, so there are your only options for finding labels in an Agile board.

That's a shame :-/ Note that it would be enough to just enter the label text in the search field. I wouldn't need necessarily to search by the label field.

Quick filters unfortunately can only be created by administrators. I can't create a quick filter for my use only.

What you can do however is create your own filters and use them in gadgets on your dashboard.

Your filter could be something like "sprint in openSprints() and label = your_label"

Unfortunately that won't help me with all the visual noise that I'm getting in the agile board. Thanks anyway!

You can create board filters in the board settings > Quick Filters and give JQL for labels = <Your label>

That worked for me

Is there no way to create like a dropdown to search on any label? Or to fill in some text and mark something like 'search on label'
