Search by advanced (JQL)

The JIRA query language (JQL) allows for complex issue searches. This is how you can create queries in JIRA and then utilize them with Integration+. You can write JQL formatted messages directly in Slack, create them in JIRA, and copy the syntax into Slack.

  1. Login Log in to Jira and go to Search Issues.

  2. Create your search via the basic or advanced tabs.

  3. Copy the JQL from Jira (if using the basic search you will need to switch to JQL).

  4. Go to the channel where the bot is installed. Type Jira search and paste the JQL from the above previous step.
