track my @mentions effectively

Gudni Gylfason

I am running the IT service for my company through Jira. All employee support and contractor system development is run through 27 projects. This is alot to oversee and we use @mentions to highlight direct questions. It is however not hard to miss these in the flood of notifacations.

I use a JQL string that lets me know if I have been @mentioned: (summary ~ currentUser() OR description ~ currentUser() OR comment ~ currentUser()) AND updatedDate >= -7d

This is limited to the fact that it highlights any issue beeing updated in the last 7 days that has me @mentioned even though the @mention took place long before.

Is there any JQL string or gadet that can help me narrow down to just my @mentions in the time frame that I m looking at?

Not aware of default JIRA ability to search comments by its date. But I found some plugins that has such features

Script Runner JQL search - https://jamieechlin.atlassian.net/wiki/display/GRV/Scripted+JQL+Functions#ScriptedJQLFunctions-Comments
JQL Tricks plugin - http://www.j-tricks.com/jqlt-usage.html

I was having the same problem but have now found a workaround using ToDoist (as i already used this for tracking simple tasks). I setup a filter on Gmail to check for "mentioned you", this then auto forwards these emails to a ToDoist project so I now have a task for each mention for me to action.

Its quite simplistic at the moment but does the job. I'm planning to build a better process for this with some smarter parsing of the email notifications.

Good tip but UX is ruined on so many levels when they send @mentins only when mentioning done first time. Why would we have further mentions than at all?

This such feature would be really helpful. Currently, the only tool is the assignee but a lot of time people just mention someone in the comment but forgot to change the assignee.

Looking forward to having this filter enabled in Jira.
