    In Jira Server, the search queries are executed in the same Java Virtual Machine (JVM) as Jira. On a cloud hosting, the JQL Search Extensions service is a separate deployment communicating with Jira over the REST API. As a result, all operations in Jira Cloud are indexed asynchronously, and any changes in Jira are reflected in the JQL with a slight delay.

    Filters are indexed periodically through the automatic sync process. If a filter hasn’t been used for 7 days or more, it won’t be included in the automatic sync. The sync status is displayed on the Extended Search filters page.

    You can run a manual sync for any of your saved Extended Search filters to prioritize syncing and ensure your most critical filters are current. See Extended Search filters to learn more about filter limitations.
