 Description  « Hide
It would be a nice addition if users could subscribe to
a shared filter.

ie. I created a filter that's interesting for other
people, but they'd rather sub/unsub themselves if they want than bother
me about it, or they'd want to subscribe without sub'in a whole group.
Currently, only the owner of the filter can subscribe itself (and possibly
others) to it.

Hi Gregory,

It is possible to create a 'Global Filter' which is viewable by all. This filter will appear in the 'List ALL Filters' portlet on the dashboard and also in the 'Viewable Filters' in the 'Manage Filters' page for all users. From here, it is possible to subscribe to the filter.

However, it would be helpful to provide the functionality you describe.

Regards,
Keith

Hi Keith,

I knew about (global) filter sharing, what I mean is really the subscription to it, i.e receiving daily mails with the results of the filter, should be available to all users which see the filter, not only the creator of the filter


Keith Brophy - 03/Feb/05 04:18 PM
Hi Gregory,

Forgive me if I have misunderstood your point - but once the filter is global, it is possible for any user to subscribe to that filter.

Each user who is interested in the filter can navigate to the 'Manage Filters' section and then click the 'Subscribe' link for a 'Personal Subscription' to that specific filter.

Again - please let me know if I have misunderstood your point.

Regards,
Keith

Oh, sorry Keith, I must admit I didn't try the global sharing.. only group sharing.

No Problems! Let us know if this addresses your requirements sufficiently.

Regards,
Keith

It will do for now, but as the usage of jira grows in the company and extends to much more then the development team now, it is a bit "annoying" that non-dev people get our stuff in their filters

Keith Brophy - 03/Feb/05 06:49 PM
Agreed - it would be nice to share the filter with multiple groups perhaps - so as the users who can view the filter can be more specifically defined.

Grégory Joseph - 03/Feb/05 07:02 PM
Yes, that too, absolutely

Darn, I just noticed you can actually also subscribe to group-shared folders. I was always looking for the subscription link right where it is when i look at MY filter. In the case of shared filters, it's only available in the "manage filters" screen.
I guess this issue can be closed, or renamed to "ability to share filters with multiple groups"

I'm managing implementation projects in jira, and I want to be able to setup filters for each dev in a project, and subscribe them to their own filter so they receive daily updates of their open tasks. However, I can't subscribe an individual user to the filter. I don't want to share all 15 of the filters and ask them to subscribe, I need to do it so they are definitely getting the email lists. Is there a way to do this?

Brian Nguyen - 04/Aug/05 09:52 PM
Hi Melissa,

The best way to subscribe an email list to a filter is to create 'dummy' users for each group and subscribe these users to the appropriate filters.

Thanks,
Brian
