How can I filter for all issues where I have commented?

Nabil Suleman

Is it possible to filter for all issues where I have commented. It doesn't matter what I comment, but I am trying to search for all issues where it is something like "commented by = currentUser()"

I am using JIRA version (v5.2.11#854-sha1:ef00d61)

Thanks,

Nabil

Hi Nabil,

This is not available by default in JIRA, but you should be able to do this by installing the Script Runner Plugin. This will allow you to run a jql query like this:
issueFunction in commented("by username")
in JIRA advanced search.

I have implemented JQL functions

Mert Karadağlı _ Köstebek Teknoloji _

You can use Jira Comment Toolbox to filter issues according to comments with new JQL functions listed below.

- Commented By User
- Commented By User Between Dates
- Commented By Group Member
- Commented By Group Member Between Dates
- Commented By Role Member
- Commented By Role Member Between Dates

Moreover, You can contact with info@kostebekteknoloji.com for your new JQL function requests and comment functionality.

Looks like question Not active, still may help New vistiors.
Try Without using Any plugins

@Nabil as you are looking for where you have commented.
One Simple Workaround in JIRA is to looks for your Proflie.

1. Go to your profile, Navigate to Top Right Corner of the page
2. Check Activity Stream for the user (This will List all activities and comments)
3. Similary JIRA will give Links to other user profiles whenever they are Tagged/Mentioned and you can check comments or activities by other users.

May Not be directly applicable to all as depends on the use case, still hope this helps as no additional plugins are needed for this.

Thank you! This is all I was really trying to do - show the issues I've updated, usually via comment. Was really not relishing installing a plugin just to get that search function

Thanks a lot for the solution. Really helped me sort out my tickets.

I created a filter for this search

(summary ~ currentUser() OR description ~ currentUser() OR assignee = currentUser() OR worklogAuthor = currentUser() OR comment ~ currentUser() OR watcher = currentUser() OR text ~ currentUser() OR creator = currentUser() OR voter = currentUser()) AND status != done ORDER BY lastViewed DESC

To show me everywhere I'm mentioned and the ticket isn't done

unknown

I would add Status Changed BY currentuser() too. I dont know if that is covered on yours

Christopher Morrow

Should this still work? My profile contains no such link.

Hi, please,

can I make a filter (jql) to search comments by name of user? like:

"project = "XYZ" AND issueFunction in commented("by curentUser")"

It gives me a list of issues where the user has commented but I wanna know how many comments exactly the curent user have in project.

If there is a possibility to get the filter into a gadget, it would be perfect.

Please, any advice?

Thankx

I'd like to do the opposite, show tickets where I'm NOT the latest comment.

I need to filter all tickets where i need to respond.

Have an automation for this that sets the status to "waiting reply from customer" and "waiting for my reply", but that only works on tickets created after the rule.

Any ideas?

I added "assignee was currentUser()" as well:

(summary ~ currentUser() OR description ~ currentUser() OR assignee = currentUser() OR assignee was currentUser() OR Status Changed BY currentuser() OR worklogAuthor = currentUser() OR comment ~ currentUser() OR watcher = currentUser() OR text ~ currentUser() OR creator = currentUser() OR voter = currentUser()) AND status != done ORDER BY lastViewed DESC

Great solve, +1 thanks!

Atlassian "This Is Not Available By Default" Jira... strikes again!

Enrico Deotto

This is what worked for me.

I added a custom field of type "People" to my ticket and I called it 'Commented by'.

next I inserted an automation rule triggered by a 'ticket commented' event and I added a custom action that updates the 'Commented by' field as follows:

{
"update": {
"Commented by" : [
{
"add": {
"id":"{{issue.comments.last.author.accountId}}"
}
}
]
}
}

With this rule, every time a ticket is commented, the commentator is appended to the 'Commented by' field. In other words, all tickets have the list of all the people who have commented them.

This said, it's very easy to use this 'Commented by' field in a query to extract all tickets commented by me or any other user.

why accept the answer that says you can't do this, when the 2nd answer below shows how you can almost entirely do this?
