How to sort tasks by status

Linus Holman

Hey guys sorry if this is a stupid question and thanks to everyone in advance.

I would like to know if there is an easy way to show all tasks by what their workflow label is. For example I want to see all tasks that are currently marked as "active" or "testing".

Hello @Linus Holman

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

Go to Filters > Search Work Items.

Create a search entering criteria for the Status values of interest.

Execute the search.

Are you wanting to see this in a specific screen that you currently view, like Backlog or Board?

If you are new to using Jira you may want to take advantage of the free, on-demand training available through the Learning link at the top of the Community pages.

Hi @Linus Holman and welcome to the Community!

You can sort the result based on status by adding ORDER BY STATUS to the end of your query.

Be aware that the order is based on the ordering of statuses under Work Item attributes -> Statuses under Admnistration and not alphabetically. If the ordering of statuses is not set up correctly thy might be percieved quite random.

If you want only to see issues in specific statuses your query would look something like this

Project = XYZ and Issuetype In (Story, Task) AND Status in (Active, Testing)

There are now stupid questions! How can you otherwise learn :-) ?

Best regards,
