Atlassian Update - 30 May 2023

Dear Customers,

Thank you for taking the time to file and comment on this issue. We hear your feedback.

We are now investigating the technical possibility of allowing exact-text searching in JQL. This means not only coding a proof of concept, but more importantly running performance tests to ensure this new feature does not impact negatively Jira Data Center stability.

We are planning to come back with another update within 3 months.

Description

NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

Currently there is no way to find an exact string using the text ~ or comment ~, etc, notations. Could we add another operator, something equivalent to 'contains exactly'?

E.g. project = JIRA and text ~~ "this string of text" would return all JIRA project issues with "this string of text", with the individual words in that order.
