This is already a thing.  https://support.atlassian.com/jira-work-management/docs/advanced-search-reference-jql-functions/#Advancedsearching-functionsreference-projectsLeadByUserprojectsLeadByUser()

This is a must have feature. If software developer collaboration tools (like slack) already support this I don't know why Jira should be behind on this

would like this too. also, it would be great if more input can be available at Project Settings too. Right now there is only Project Category. I have alot more input required at project level than just this.

Interested

I'm using Cloud, but my problem was solved using this JQL search: project in projectsLeadByUser() AND status = Open

+1 We could absolutely utilize this on our project.  We have multiple teams, each maintaining several projects, it would be great to be able to sort results by team lead (which we set to project owner) in order to categorize the projects by the teams they are associated with without having to filter out the other teams.

+1, it is a very convenient feature.

+1 for this in OnDemand. We need to be able to create a Dashboard for the current user, showing that user information about the project where they are the Project Lead. Given this, we would be able to have one Dashboard that adjusts as the Project Lead changes.

+1 for this, we want to be able to use it from jira agile plugin

+1 for this, we want to be able to do dashboards based on component leads

Daniel is right: projectsLeadByUser gives user's own projects.

IMHO this can be done with:

project in projectsLeadByUser() 

which means this issue can be closed as resolved. Or not?

another +1

+1 for this feature. Would make it much easier for project managers to keep track of all time critical issues regarding their own projects.

I want this feature too (by project lead and component lead)!

Edit: Sorry just noticed componentsLeadByUser(username) in this page.

+1 for this. Seems like a basic feature that was omitted for no apparent reason.

We'd love to be able to create a dashboard using something like

project in projectsILead()

+1 also. For an organisation with many projects and project managers it's handy to be able to make an view per project lead, surely if there are new projects constantly, it's a terrible amount of work to be constantly updating the filter and to remember who the project lead was....

+1 more for this feature. As a component lead across several projects I am constantly having to update queries

+1 for this feature
It sounds like a missing basic need...

Thank you in advance!

We'd love to see this feature as well. We have a large number of projects, and project leads currently have no way to check for any unassigned issues in their projects. Since projects are added often, creating filters that specify specific projects to search in is not an option.

Specifically, we'd like to see an extra filter item "project lead", with the options "any user", "current user", "specify user" and "specify group" so you can filter projects the same way you filter issues.

Unfortunately no. I was hoping that we would be able to search by roles, though due to the nature of it, will not make it into 3.7.

Sorry.

This just came up for us as well. We are assigning leads to all the components (we have about 50 components) and each lead will manage the issues in their components. I would love to see a filter that shows issues with a component lead (i.e., a group of components). We could use the filter statistics to break it out by component or by assignee.

Did this make it in 3.7?

Fair enough!

We are adding Project Roles in 3.7 and this may be possible with that.

Cheers,
Nick

The project leads change arround here over time and for the sake of maintainability and reuse the ability to filter by project lead rather than project would be a great help.

This improvment would greatly reduce the number of filters as well. We could create one filter called "Issues where I am the project lead".

Greg,

Can't you just selected the projects you want to filter on?
