Jira filter for components without a task

Question

Hi!

Would like to know if it's possible to filter via Jira query all components which are created by jira admin, but are not liked with any task.

Example:
Jira admin created 3 components.
CM-A, CM-B, CM-D

CM-B component is linked with tasks.

But would like to filter CM-A and CM-D out with JQL.

Using not exists or not in values, give 0 result, meaning those can't be used at charts.

Currently it can be seen from Jira admin side, issues filter only.

Yes indeed it could take some time to go thru a long list. Basically 10s per component is a good estimate.

Indeed it could be done, but depending on components amount it's costly.

Took currently workaround, Jira admin just shares information into jira task, which components have 0 issues.

That info is added into jira dashboard, filtered by description so we can see that information.

So you could go thru 1 component at a time...

Component A

Component B

Component C

JQL - component = "Component A"

If it returns zero issues then that component it's not associated to any issue. Repeat for all other components.
