Creating, editing metadata is only one aspect of Metadata for Jira, you can also search for metadata.
You can use Jira's search (JQL) to find the following elements.
| Element | JQL |
|---|---|
| Project | project in projectsMetadata("key", "value") |
| Component | xxx in versionsMetadata("key", "value") |
| Version | xxx in versionsMetadata("key", "value") |
| User | xxx in usersMetadata("key", "value") |
| Group | xxx in groupsMetadata("key", "value") |
Let's imagine you have the following metadata for a version.
Now you want to search for issues that have been fixed in a hotfix version (e.g. 1.0.14).
Step-by-step guide
- Select the 'Issues' > 'Search Issues' option from the Issues menu.
- Switch to the advanced search mode by clicking on Advanced.
- Insert the following JQL
fixVersion in versionsMetadata("hotfix", "yes")
The search will then show you all operations that have been resolved for a hotfix version (e.g. 1.0.14).
