How to get a filter Generator as a transformation

[anjali gola]

In a structure I insert issues by a JQL. I use extend generators to show child issues.

Then I use a filter generator in JQL to filter some child issues out. When setting up this filter I enable the option 'Keep Non-Issues' and also enable 'Show all sub-items of matching items". I filter on Level "Manual" with Level value set as '2'.

Instead of having this filter as part of automation, I would like it to be a quick save option or a transformation. While I can recreate the JQL part, how do I set the other options (Keep non-issues, show all sub-items, manual level 2) in a query?

Hi @anjali gola  You can add JQL as Quick transformation. Select Extend transformation.

Thanks, yes I just figured that out.

Hi, guys. Thank you, @Vikrant Yadav. 

Just so other readers don't get confused, the quick transformation feature has not yet arrived in Structure Cloud.  The documentation link you shared, Vikrant, is for the on-prem editions of Structure.  

@anjali gola , your post was originally tagged for cloud and jira-cloud.  Are you in fact using an on-prem edition of Jira? 

If so, it would be a good idea to adjust the tags accordingly for the benefit of future readers.  :)

Yes, we use an on-perm version. I removed the 'cloud' tag, is there a better one I should add?
