In JIRA, how can I find all the user stories assigned to a specific person?
Hi @Smitha Joseph,
Let's assume that user stories are an issue type Story in your Jira, just navigate to Filters > View all issues, switch to advanced search mode and enter the following JQL:
issuetype = Story and assignee = <user>
Obviously, replace <user> with the person you're looking for.
Hope this helps!
Adding a caveat to this...
When the query is executed the results will be limited to issues that can be viewed by the person executing the query.
If the specified user has access to a Project that is not accessible to the person running the query, then the results from that Project will be excluded.
For more information about searching for issues you can refer to the documentation here:

You can also find a free 50 minute self-paced training course from Atlassian here:

Thank you @Walter Buggenhout & @Trudy P Claspill for your inputs, it did work.
I'm also looking for a way to generate a report where I can view what user stories have been worked by a specific person
What do you mean by "generate a report"?
You could use the Filter Results gadget in a Jira Dashboard to show the results of the filter.
You can set up a Subscription to the filter so that is sends the results to you on a schedule that you define. If other Jira users need to get the output you can Share the filter and those users can also set up subscriptions to receive the output.
Note that the filter is based on the current Assignee of the issue. If a user was an Assigned on the issue in the past but is not the current Assignee, the the issue would not appear in the list for that user. Is that important?
