nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

Is it possible to see the work items flagged in the list view?

María Ferreño Serra

I need my team to see the tasks that are flagged in the list view. Is there any way to do this? It won't let me add it as a new column. Can you think of any other alternatives?

Thank you very much!

Hi @María Ferreño Serra 👋

That’s a great question — and you’re right, the Flagged field currently can’t be added as a column in the new list view.
It’s a known limitation in Jira Cloud’s list experience.

You can still work around it in a few ways:

🧩 Use a filter with Flagged is not EMPTY to list all flagged issues. (You can customize this JQL with AND, OR operators for your wish.)
📊 Add that filter to a dashboard gadget for quick visibility.
⚙️ If you have Advanced Roadmaps, you can add “Flagged” as a column there.

Hope this helps! 🙂

Hi @María Ferreño Serra

That would be a great feature proposition! Currently, in the list view, this cannot be added, but what I would recommend instead is to use the format rules where you can based on the query, the one that @Ali Umut Terzi suggested to be applied to across either your row or the column.

Thanks! Yes ,they are the workaround we are using it, but some users prefer to use the list view :S

María Ferreño Serra

Thanks!!! Do you know if there is a request that we can vote for that? I know a lot of people from my team that we will love it!

Hi @María Ferreño Serra,

As others have pointed out already, there's ways to get there using JQL filters or Advanced Roadmaps.

If you want a more powerful approach while keeping a list-like experience, and if you're open to solutions from the Atlassian Marketplace, you may want to have a look at the app that my team and I are working on, JXL for Jira.

JXL is a full-fledged spreadsheet/table view for your Jira data that allows viewing, inline-editing, copy-pasting, sorting, and filtering by all your work items' fields, much like you’d do in e.g. Excel, Google Sheets, Smartsheet, or Airtable. It also comes with a long list of further features, including support for the "Flagged" field, conditional formatting and many more. This is what it looks like in action:

This is really just one of a virtually endless number of possible views and reports; you have full control over which data you want to show and highlight.

Any questions just let me know,

Best,

Lukas

Hi @María Ferreño Serra

If you are open to try out a mktplace solution for this need, I can suggest

Issue Hierarchy

The app allows you to view your issues in a list view with the ability to add "Flagged" column. Also the app provides a hierarchical view too along with %complete progress at each parent level. The app can be added to a dashboard as well.
