Access to "Votes" fields in JQL?

[Barry van Oudtshoorn]

I can't seem to work out how to use "vote" fields in JQL queries. In my particular use case, I want to use JQL to select all issues with a number of votes above a certain threshold, then use a bulk action to add a label to all of them.

The workarounds at present are to manually note down each issuekey for the query (i.e. `issuekey in (AX-12, AX-34, AX-58, ...)`) based on my JPD view and apply the bulk operation from there, or to simply go into each item one-by-one and add a label.

I must be missing something somewhere, because I would have expected that every field in an issue is available for use in JQL. I did try watching network traffic to see if I had to identify the field using `cf[12345]` syntax, but I didn't spot anything in the request or response that looked helpful -- although I did see that `fieldId`, `fieldName`, and `jiraFieldKey` were all null.

Hi @Barry van Oudtshoorn 

I see you can use votes in JPD, if you add a field based on voting.

But JPD can only JQL on the voter not on the number of votes.

The votes (number based) is only used, based on non JPD projects.

Hi,
You can find a similar discussion with some alternatives here 

Hope this helps.

Thanks @Omer Meshar -- that's a step in the right direction! I'm still quite confused by just how separate JPD is from everything else in JIRA. Hopefully the team can make it feel more like a fully-integrated part of JIRA over the next couple of months. :)
