 Description  « Hide

I'd love to be able to access the results of My Votes and My Watches as a filter. This would allow me to access this data via existing filter functionality. Most of the benefits of this would be related to the dashboard.

Some example uses could be:

  • Inclusion of My Votes/Watches on dashboard
  • Filter statistics reporting
  • Two dimensional filter statistics
  • Sharing of vote/watch data

I find these features very useful with normal filters and I guess it just seems a little counter intuitive NOT to have access to the vote/watch data in this way.

While having it as a filter would be great, just having a Watched Issues or My Votes portlet would be enough.

Bob,
linked Issue has two custom portlets attached (one for votes and the other for watched issue). Perhaps one could use or improve them.

Cheers,
Philip

Works great! Thanks for the contribution.

What's about the main requirement?
I think this would be necessary in addition to the Watched Issues Portlet or can I access the issue navigator view from the portlet?

For watchers, waiting on this issue, there could be a workaround for you. There's a plugin that adds 2 custom fields:

  • Voters on an issue
  • Watchers on an issue

that you could use to create a filter of your (or anyone's) watches. Note, however, that in my testing it broke the Word export in 3.6

This would also be handy to bulk change all the watched issues.


Jeff Fry added a comment - 26/Mar/08 04:05 PM

We would like this as well - someone here wanted to set up an RSS feed of item he's watching, when the version they're in becomes a released version. This is possible to do for issues reported by a user (for example), but not for issues a user is watching, since we can't filter by that yet.


Neil Arrowsmith added a comment - 19/Jun/08 05:55 AM

Added my vote. I've got users who watch a lot of issues and want to be able to group them in some way on their dashboard. This would be possible through filtering if they could filter on "watched by me" AND "something else".

Don't like the plugin link as it doesn't respect permissions

Version 4.0.0-Beta2-#432 appears to not support this use case: Sharing of vote/watch data

It only appears to offer the ability to filter on the current user's voted issues and not a specific user or list of users: http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Advanced+Searching?clicked=jirahelp#AdvancedSearching-votedIssues%28%29

Will this use case be supported by the final 4.0 release?


Brian Lane added a comment - 17/Aug/09 12:23 AM

The votedIssues() & watchedIssues() functions will perform queries on issues of the current user running that filter.

The specific case of sharing vote/watch data is currently not planned as part of 4.0 and would be an improvement to these two mentioned functions. I have created an issue for this improvement as JRA-18436.

The other cases described in this issue are being addressed as part of JIRA 4.0 and JQL.
