Jira filter Created vs CreatedDate, what is the difference

[Dima Astahov]

Hi 

In basic filters I see those fields, trying to understand is that the same thing or now, looks like both of them are the same  and related to ISSUE.  I'm on the cloud version.

I also see that  I can not use them with just equal sign, this result produce nothing,  is there any time portion  in these fields?

---

created = '2024-06-17'           -- no results

created >= '2024-06-17'        --show issues created on 6/7/24

---

Using  created Date  returns the same results for me.

Also : can  I create a filter  for  comments entered on or after certain date? Comments .CreatedDate  >= '2024-06-06 '

Thanks

*sorry needed to use space in created Date, othewise this forum didin't let me thru.

Hi Dima:

"Created" attribute is a Date/Time data type format, so if you use the "=" sign, it is looking for issues that were created with the value of 2024-06-17 00:00 timestamp.  Therefore you have to use the ">=" operator.

Created and CreateDate are the referring to the same attribute.  I prefer just using the "Created" word in my JQL.

Hope this helps.

Unfortunately it is not available out ot the box for comments created date.  You will need a third party add-on.

One product that we use is Scriptrunner for Jira where it provides us with custom JQL functions including what you are asking related to comments -
