Feature


UI Text Box

There are three ways to search

and filter results

available. Each section provides different parameters to search for. They will be described in the following sub pages. The screenshots below will show you in which way it is possible to search with the different filters.   

The items in one filter are filterd with an OR-function. That means, every item that was entered will be displayed if available. The link between two filters is an AND-function. This means, if you enter a search item in the first filter and then an item in the second filter only the results will be shown that cover both items.

Since

Prior to

version 2.3.0

 the shortcut was "dd"

- changed to gx, but the old shortcut works for now.

Admin Toolbox for Jira 2.0 introduces a similar functionality

to Jira

with Jira's global search (gg) - to name just one of many shortcuts in Jira - and it is meant to simplify the search for administration items. Typing

gx

dd on any page in Jira will open a pop-up window, where you can search for the following configuration items, by Name, ID, or Key:

    Filtering elements

    The following elements can be filtered with Admin Toolbox for Jira:

  • Workflow items
  • In each category you can find several filters. They will depend on your selection.


    Search by drop down list

    Within your filters you have some options to find a specific item. This picture shows you the drop down function. If there are to many items the list will be sliced and tell you how many items you don't see.

    Search by name

    It is also possible to find items by Name. For this case it doesn't matter for which constellation of letters you search. The app will also return solutions if you search for word fragments independent from case sensitivity.

    Enhanced Functionality/Sharing Filters

    New functionality: Multi select filtering, as well as searching items by different attributes: Name, Key or ID.

    The new feature that comes with this release is the possibility to share filters with other administrators. Admin Toolbox provides a shareable link, if one exists. The link icon will be shown on the right hand-side of the filter menu, like in the picture below:

    Smart View

    Goal is to compress unimportant information on the administrative pages, like workflows, workflow schemes, issue types, issue type schemes, etc, especially when there are a lot of entries in the tables' columns.

    In order to activate this view, click on the cog wheel available in the Admin Toolbox menu, and check the smart view. This option is also saved in the browser cookies.
