Is there a search syntax to specify some text vs no text?

I want to search for JIRA Issues that have something (anything) written in a specified field but not those issues where nothing has been entered in the field.

Is there a search syntax to specify some text vs no text?

I could get round this my setting the field to contain the word "None" by default and then searching for issues that do not contain "None" in that field

Hi @Neil Shearer , welcome on the community.

You can use "is EMPTY" query. For field with name "Description" the JQL is:

Description is EMPTY

I hope I understood your issue correctly.

Happy to help. If you want to learn more about JQL, you can check the documentation. JQL language is very powerful
