Importing JIRA Filters
JIRA Live can import issues directly from a saved JIRA filter, and the Portfolio table supports sorting on every column.
Column sorting
Click any column header to sort by it; click again to reverse direction. Sortable columns: Key, Summary, Type, Status, Assignee, Story Points, Sprint, Created, Updated.
Import from a JIRA filter
- Open JIRA Live and expand Import from Filter.
- Paste a JIRA filter URL (the one containing
?filter=<id>). - Import.
Broccoli extracts the filter ID, fetches its underlying JQL from JIRA, executes it, and caches the results for faster subsequent loads.
Finding a filter's URL: in JIRA, go to Filters → View all filters, open the filter you want, and copy the URL — it will contain ?filter=<id>.
Structure boards
Structure-plugin boards don't expose a public REST API, so direct import from a structure board URL isn't supported. Two workarounds:
- View as Filter — most structure boards have a "View as Filter" / "Open as Filter" option in their toolbar. That converts the view into a standard filter URL, importable as above.
- Extract the underlying JQL — many structure boards are configured from a base JQL query; check the board's configuration and paste that JQL directly into JIRA Live's custom search.
Custom JQL
For maximum flexibility, paste custom JQL directly into JIRA Live's search — all standard JQL is supported, independent of the quick filters.
Caching
Imported filters are cached like any other query. Use Refresh to force a re-fetch from JIRA, or Clear Cache to remove all cached results for a fresh start.
