Use this interactive demo to learn how to create and save a custom filter in Jira.

Quick summary

Saving a filter in Jira lets you quickly re-run any issue search query without rebuilding it from scratch. Use Jira's Create Filter workflow to store Basic or JQL queries with a custom name and access settings for your team.


Steps

  1. On Jira's home page, open the left-side panel and click 'More'.
  2. Choose 'Filters' from the list of options.
  3. Click 'View All Filters' to proceed to the filters page.
  4. Click 'Create Filter' in the top-right corner.
  5. Select 'Basic' or 'JQL' as your preferred search mode.
  6. Enter your preferred search query into the input field.
  7. Click 'Save Filter' once your query is ready.
  8. Fill in the required filter name and description in their respective fields.
  9. Configure the access settings based on your sharing preference.
  10. Click 'Save' to confirm and store the filter.
  11. Your search query is now saved as a filter in your Jira space.

📌 Why this matters

Saving filters in Jira eliminates the need to manually recreate complex issue searches every time, saving teams significant time during sprint planning and bug triage. Jira's filter management supports both Basic and JQL search modes, making it accessible to new users and power users alike. Teams can name, describe, and control access to saved filters, enabling consistent issue tracking across projects. This feature is essential for any agile team looking to standardize how they monitor and report on work items in Jira.
