FAQPage Schema
How do I run a Jira JQL query to list matching issues?

To run a Jira JQL query, you provide a query string to execute the issue list command with a --jql expression. This directly filters your Jira issues and returns a clear list of matching results for validation.

What is the easiest way to build a Jira JQL query when I don't know the syntax?

The easiest way to build a Jira JQL query is using an interactive JQL helper. It guides you through constructing valid queries for assignees, statuses, or types without needing to memorize syntax, producing a reusable expression.

Do I need any specific tools installed to execute Jira issue searches?

Yes, you need the jirac command line tool installed and available. The execution process checks for jirac availability before running your JQL expression to ensure successful Jira issue discovery.

Can I filter Jira issues by assignee or status using JQL?

Yes, you can filter Jira issues by assignee, status, or type using JQL. You can either write the query manually or use the interactive helper to generate the correct filtering expression for repeated searches.

Why is my Jira JQL query not returning the expected issues?

If your Jira JQL query is not returning expected issues, the syntax might be invalid. Use the interactive JQL helper to construct a valid query and verify the generated expression before executing the issue list command.
