Queue for two different project keys

Question

Hello guys!

I'm moving from a shared project to a dedicated project to my dept only. However, I'm having an issue where two issue types on the shared original project are split between depts. and both depts cooperate on these tickets.

These are tickets that we receive from high level management who sometimes don't truly know under whose team does the query fall, or letters they receive and we need to investigate before ascertaining ownership.

Is there a way that while on transition to a dedicated project, I could display to my SMEs the tickets they have escalated on their other SD & those that are in progress but assigned to them as well? Basically, like the Jira filters where we can look up issues from different project keys, can I mimic that on a Jira queue?

Thank you!

Ah, hang on, you're trying to use the filters inside queues.  This will not work, because queues are specific to a project.

Look at the help-text above where you put the JQL in.

You will have to work outside the queue and a single project.  You need to write JQL in a search, save it as a filter, and work with that in the issue search and maybe dashboard gadgets, and Software boards.

Projects cannot share queues because the queue (and SLAs) for projects could be different, so an issue in A might be queued and have its SLA calculated totally differently to one in B.

Thank you @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- & @Brant Schroeder !

This was more or less what I tried to do. I wrote the queue in SQL, in the new project but linking it to the previous one. So, I'm in project B and I wrote it like

project in (A) AND issuetype = ("EE", "Customer request") AND assignee in (abc)

The issue here is that I'm unable to get any tickets from project A into the project B - and I know I have those tickets as I have access to both projects. How can I try and sort this?
