"~" does not work with "Support Team"

Deepak Patnaik June 16, 2022

Hello,

 

it is observed that operator "~" does not work with "Support Team" 

if we enter"Support Team" ~ "JDE*" it does not shows any result.

Can you please explain what is the way to get the result for support team where a keyword JDE is found

 

Regards

Deepak Patnaik

Hi @Deepak Patnaik ,

The correct JQL depends on the type of custom field.
What type of field is "Support team" in your Jira?

And if you search for a basic filter on the "Support team" field, what option do you get to fill in?

Regards, Marco

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

~ only works with variable text fields.  I suspect your team field is a selection type field, which have a fixed range of values, and hence only support searching for the options, not partial searches of the option names.

Your search probably needs to be done by calling out the exact options you are looking for - Team in (JDE-1, JDE-ABC, Support-JDE, etc)

Thanks for your reply and yes i agree with you.

I tried using in operator but the problem is if i put all the JDE team names, the length is exceeding 1000 character and it shows error message in smart filter.

As all the team name starts with JDE it would be easy to use ~ "JDE*" but it does not work :(

Why do you have so many JDE support teams listed?  The need to search by text suggests your data is structured incorrectly in Jira, and you should be considering other ways to do it. 

I don't know your data or your business, so I can't make any strong recommendations, but I do suspect you should be splitting up your projects, or, if it really does need to be one field, using a cascading select list rather than a select list with thousands of options.

So many support team because we have two team level 1 and level 2 (escalation) for every module of JDE.  And due to this length is exceeding 1000 character. Like JDE we have 15 other towers and I want to create a dashboard by tower.  To track JDE tower i want to put all support team falling under it and similarly for other towers as well. And I cannot split it because it will show inaccurate statistics by way of chart and graphs.

So why aren't you using a cascading select?  Or at least storing the "module" in a separate field so that you can do easy searches like "support team = JDE and module = xyz"?
