Summary

Improve how quickly Jira Cloud for Sheets reflects new and updated filters from Jira Cloud so that users aren’t blocked for ~3 hours by cached filter data.

Description

Currently, the Jira Cloud for Sheets add-on caches both:

• The list of available filters, and

• The JQL associated with those filters

for approximately 3 hours.

Observed behavior

• The filter list in the add-on does not show the newly created filter immediately.

• If the filter already existed, the add-on continues to use the old JQL definition, even though the filter was updated in Jira.

• Dev team has confirmed this is due to a 3‑hour cache of both the filter list and the filter JQL on the Sheets side.

Expected behavior

• Changes to an existing filter’s JQL should be reflected in the add-on without having to wait for a multi-hour cache expiry.

• Ideally, there should be a way to manually refresh filters/JQL from within the add-on (e.g., a “Refresh filters” button) to immediately pull the latest filter definitions from Jira.
