JIRA: Retrieve All Issues Associated with a User

In JIRA 3.13, I’m trying to locate every issue connected to a specific user across multiple projects. A basic text-based search returns only those issues where the user’s name appears in the content, rather than identifying cases where the user is assigned, reported, or included in notifications. My goal is to compile a list of all relevant tickets tied to me for stock accounting purposes.

hey, try using jql directly: something like assignee = mike71 or reporter = mike71. use advanced queries and custom fields if available. couldnt find a one-click solution so testing a flexi filter might help u. good luck!

Based on my experience, combining multiple JQL conditions was the most reliable solution. I was able to retrieve all issues by writing a query that captures not only the standard fields such as assignee and reporter but also custom fields that track involvement. It required some trial and error to adjust for project-specific configurations and permissions. Using saved filters and monitoring for any changes in field usage helped maintain consistency over time. This method worked well for stock accounting purposes and improved the overall efficiency of issue tracking.
