Use this interactive demo to learn how to search and filter old Jira tickets by date.

Quick summary

To find old Jira tickets, use the search bar and apply a Created date filter under More Filters to retrieve issues within a specific date range. This method works in Jira's Basic search mode and lets you quickly surface archived or historical work items without writing JQL.


Steps

  1. On Jira's main dashboard, navigate to the top navigation bar and click the search bar.
  2. Click View All Work Items to proceed to the full issue list.
  3. Under Basic search mode, open the More Filters menu.
  4. Find Created from the filter list and tick the checkbox beside it to enable the date filter.
  5. Select the specific date operator you wish to use for filtering.
  6. Set the date range by entering a value in the input field or configuring the provided menus.
  7. Click the Update button to apply the filter.
  8. Your old Jira tickets will now be filtered by date range and displayed for viewing.

📌 Why this matters

Finding old Jira tickets is a common pain point for teams managing large backlogs or auditing historical work. Jira's built-in Created date filter in Basic search mode lets you retrieve archived issues instantly without writing complex JQL queries. This is critical for sprint retrospectives, compliance audits, and tracking long-running issues across projects. Knowing how to use Jira's More Filters menu saves teams significant time when searching through hundreds or thousands of work items.
