Is it possible to search for issues with no comments?

[Svante Gustafsson]

Hi,

I want to find all issues (with JQL) that are un-commented, i.e. has no comments at all.

I have looked at the great Advanced Search page, but it only talks about finding strings within comments not if the comment itself exists or not.

Any ideas?

Script runner plugin, has hasComments. So you could use

issuefunction not in hasComments()

Ahhhh, the Script Runner does it again!!!

How would we survive without it! Thanks Jamie for a great plugin! There are new use-cases for it all the time!

Try this .

issueFunction in hasComments(0)

This is available in JQL without the need to resort to ScriptRunng

Haven't yet tested it. Let me know if you have any issues. Or raise them at https://bitbucket.org/bhushan154/jira-miscellaneous-jql-functions/issues?status=new&status=open

I just renamed the plugin so the new location for the download is

Also take a look at www.jiradev.com. It has a bunch of tutorials for JIRA development :)
