How to search Jira for all issues involving a specific user or users?

[Derrick Gunter]

How do you search Jira for all issues involving a specific user or users? That is, search for all issues that reference the user(s) in any way: the user commented on, is tagged in it, followed it, created it, was assigned it, etc.

I essentially want to find all issues that I (or someone else) touched in some way.

Thanks!

You can achieve this easily by using   JQL Search Extensions for Jira & reports plugin.

use the query like below

Please update the username with the correct username

It will get all issues where user did any activity on issue

• user created issue
• user updated issue
• user watched issue
• user voted issue
• user tagged in issue
• user commented on issue
• user added any attachment
• user is assignee
• user logged any hours
• user performed any transition

issue in attachedByUser("filip")
or
issue in commentedByUser("filip") 
OR 
issue in updatedByUser("filip")
or
issue in transitionedByUser("filip")
or
issue in loggedTimeByUser("filip")
or 
assignee ="filip"
or 
creator ="filip" 
or
watcher = "filip full name"
or
voter ="filip full name"

Thanks Muhammad. This technically works. However, it requires you to not forget some attribute.  I was hoping for a much simpler way. Perhaps it is not available. It would be a great feature though. Thank you again.

Follow this steps:

1.Go to issues-> search for issues:

2.Then filter issues for example by reporter (In this case reporter is me)

Thanks Jamil. However, this only finds issues with a specific reporter. It does not find issues that a user simply commented on, or followed, etc. I am looking for one search that finds all issues that I touched in any way.
