Multi Instance Field to be a filter available in List View

Heather Barnes_9evoyo

We probably use our Jira a bit differently than normal. We track our HRIS (Workday) projects in them so we don't use "issues" like most organizations probably do. 

 

I have "assignee" as the main project person on that particular project. 

I created a custom multi-instance field for "project participants", so not the main person on the project, but they're part of the project nonetheless. 

We all like list view better than custom dashboards that I've created and I'm wondering if there's a way to have something in the list view to show like... 

"If I'm the project assignee OR I'm a project participant, show on the list view"

Hello @Heather Barnes 

As per the documentation on this page a multiple-select user picker custom field is not supported for the quick Filter functionality of the List tab.

You can, however, construct that as a Saved Filter where you can get a view of the results similar to the list view. The JQL would be something like this:

project = CS and (assignee=currentUser() or "Multiple User Picker[User Picker (multiple users)]" in (currentUser()))

Substitute your project key for "CS" and your multiple-select user picker field name  for "Multiple User Picker[User Picker (multiple users)]"
