How to Find a specific Text using jquery

[Chandrasekaran_ Mahalingam]

need to refine the search criteria

I have Jira tickets with Sprint  value = Sprint 1 , Sprint 2, Sprint 3

When i use jquery sprint="Sprint 2" to fetch only sprint 2 records i am getting records with Sprint 1 as well 

Only by using = Operator i am not able to filter exact match and i tried == as well that not works. please suggest me the best way to search this value

Hi @Chandrasekaran_ Mahalingam,

Welcome to Atlassian community!

For "Text" search you can use operator ~ (not =), for eg.:

project = "Test Scrum" and text ~ "test"

To add to Pavel's answer, which I believe to be correct
I pass you the Jira documentation based on the text search https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/search-syntax-for-text-fields/

I hope you find it useful
