how to search by key?

[Eva]

Is there a way we can filter by Key? In JQL, the less than sign comes up as possible operator but when i use it I am getting "The issue key '2000000' for field 'key' is invalid."

Any help is appreciated!

key < TEST-15

will get you all the issues with keys TEST-1 to TEST-14. Hope that gives you an idea. You need to give a valid key after the operator.

This doesn't work anymore :(

Of course not. It was all too handy.
I bet there is a paid plugin to get this functionality back.

@Enric Martinez That's sadly all-too-likely what will happen. :-(

Hello,

I need to is there any possible to search the issue which begins with  key WEBEDI-40

Is that possible?

[Ivar Fennema]

What you could try is search for   Project = WEBEDI

[Deleted user]

key > WEBEDI-40 will give you the issues created after WEBEDI-40 like WEBEDI-41,42,43..

The following link listed out all of possible ways to search for issues in JIRA for your reference:

This link is working for me. Using "project in (PCR)".

This collects all with Keys of PCR-####.

Ah, the good old times...

Got nerfed, I assume it was a genius move to make the game experience more balanced and allow for new users to level up more quickly...

Oh, this is not the WoW forum? Sorry for that, but this move to make the KEY / issuekey fields behave like... integer search? makes as much sense as what I just wrote.

Sure, now I can use key and issuekey to search for  createdByEmail(), very handy , but unfortunately there are already other fields for that.

Thanks Atlassian. I will seriously press to migrate to Topdesk or our own bugzilla implementation. Our old TRAC based approach worked way better, at least I could use decent SQL to write queries that actually made sense.

Be sure to include the project ID in the numbers or range you specify :)
