Approver Field is not showing up in the search criteria

Question

I wanted to create custom queries for approvers or the current user logged in for the approver field.

I am unable to figure out how to do this.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi @Angana Patel

If you don't have JSM, I'm not sure it will work but you can try to create queries like

"Approvals[Approvals]" = approver("John Smith")

or

"Approvals[Approvals]" = approver("John Smith","Sarah Conor")

Let me know if it's working,

Hi @Angana Patel

Go to your Issue settings > Custom Fields.

Choose Approvers > Edit Details, Change "Search Template" from None to "User Picker & Group Searcher"

Then you can search approvers in JQL.
