What is the header called in JIRA?

Jen Niemann October 2, 2018

Looking for what the header field that contains the "name" of the ticket is called in JIRA so I can write a JQL quick filter that will isolate those items with a prefix of "Feature Request".

Hi

Do you mean the summary ?

Jen Niemann October 2, 2018

Is that the official name?

What would the JQL statement be for the following:

I want to filter my backlog to show only tickets with "feature request" in the summary field

summary ~ "feature request"

but I would rather go for an issue type "Feature request" instead of filtering a summary. You know, typos...

Best

Your best option is to create an issue type of "feature request".  Putting a prefix in the summary is clumsy and inaccurate.

Admin -> Issues -> Issue type and use "add".  Once you've created it, you will also need to add it to the "issue type scheme" for the projects you want to use the new type in.

As Jan-Peter said if you want to filter it will be summary ~ "Feature request".

Maybe you can use wildcart(*) a the end of request if you need. More info here:
