JQL Work Item Search Filters for Gadgets

Filter gadget-related work items using JQL

Updated today

Use JQL (Jira Query Language) to filter which Jira Work Items are reported on in your Vansah Testing Gadgets. JQL-powered gadgets update dynamically β€” no need to maintain a static list.

Why use JQL filters?

  • Gadgets automatically reflect the latest work items matching your query

  • Reporting stays accurate without manual updates

  • Works across multiple Jira Spaces

Steps to add a JQL filter to a Vansah Testing Gadget

  1. Open your Jira Dashboard.

  2. Click Edit on the Dashboard.

  3. Click the More options menu on a Vansah Testing Gadget and select Configure.

  4. At the bottom of the configuration panel, find Reporting Type and select Work Item / Test Folder.

  5. In the Work Item(s) section, select JQL from the dropdown.

  6. Enter your JQL query in the field provided.

  7. A green tick confirms your query is valid.

  8. Click Save.

Note: JQL syntax follows standard Jira rules. Example: project = "MY-PROJECT" AND issue type = Story.
