Not able to select an inactive user

Admin Jira SQS September 20, 2022

I am not sure if this functionality doesn't exist. But I would like to filter issues where the responsible is an inactive user. Can I do it in some way?

Thank you very much!

Hi @Admin Jira SQS 

If you are looking for issues associated with a particular user - in other words you know the name of the person, you should be able to type in the username or account ID of the user in the JQL. It will NOT show the user's name as you type, but if you enter the information, it will execute the query correctly. 

So, if I wrote a query like: project = ABC and reporter = john.funk then that would get all issues where I was the reporter and if my username was john.funk.

We have been trying on jira server but it is not working.

It is for jira cloud, not jira server.
