Quick summary
Changing the filter query on a Jira board lets you control exactly which issues are displayed by editing or replacing the underlying JQL query. You can access this setting through the board's Configure board menu and save your changes instantly.
Steps
- From your project, click the ellipsis icon in the top right corner.
- Select 'Configure board' from the dropdown menu.
- On the 'General' page, under the 'Filter' section, select 'Edit filter query'.
- Either directly edit your JQL query in the text field.
- Alternatively, select 'Switch to basic' to use the guided JQL creation tool.
- After editing the query, click 'Save' to apply the changes to your board.
- Your Jira board will now display only the issues that match your updated filter query, tailored to your project or team needs.
