Can you modify the criteria of the Assignee filter?

I used Jira Cloud, when I look at a board, at the top, it has an icon with everyone's name on it, if I click the icon it shows me all the tickets assigned to that person. I want to change this behavior for my board.

Current: if Assigneee=selectedUser

Desired: if Assigneee=selectedUser or Tester=selectedUser or Reporter=selectedUser

Is that possible?

Hello @Eric Engel

No, that is not possible.

You cannot change the filter associated with those avatars/buttons. They are strictly for filtering based on the Assignee field.

You would need to build custom filters that use your JQL, but they would have to explicitly specify the user, as it is not possible to build quick filters that support dynamic or selection list options natively. So you would end up with a quick filter for each person.

This is a defect: we have multiple assignees per issue and therefore use an 'Assignee(s)' field. It is very common for multiple people to work on the same Story, Defect, Task, or Documentation - indeed it is the most common default way work gets done properly!

When will this defect be fixed to allow filtering by the 'Assignee(s)' field instead of just the single-select 'Assignee' field?

@Trudy P Claspillthe quick filters would be an option if they worked as an OR like the avatar filters do... You need this change for that:

When I said Quick Filters could be used each quick filter, I meant they would need to be constructed with the OR logic built in, like the one the author posted:

Assigneee=selectedUser or Tester=selectedUser or Reporter=selectedUser

selectedUser would have to be set to an explicit user, and a quick filter like that would have to be constructed for each user.
