      Problem Definition

      I often create filters for users, especially those that are more complex or, because of my BA role, I create the initial filters and board setup for the product owners; however, the product owners (or those that are requesting my help), actually should own or manage the filters.

      Today, I create a filter, share it. Then that user is required to create their own and then change the filter for a board or gadget that the filter is often associated with. I have to remember to go back and delete these filters as I have no need to have them in my list.

      • As an administrator, we have hundreds if not thousands of filters that no one uses, but I have no way of knowing which ones they are to get them cleaned up.
      • As an administrator, I often get requests to go change ownership.
      • And, as an administrator and analyst, I often have to go in and change ownership to me, change their filter, and then change ownership back.

      Suggested Solution

      As an analyst,

      • I want to be able to change ownership or share ownership of a filter I created with/to another user so that they are able to manage the filter contents.
      • I want the ability to change the ownership of my own filters to someone else, or even better, actually share the ownership or management of a filter.

            Hey 4101b48837ca
            Thanks for sharing your workaround.
            To be specific, this is not an exact duplicate of JRASERVER-17783 (change of ownership vs shared ownership), but I agree with you it addressed the same need and solves the problem.

            Yes, it's included.
            ayakovlev@atlassian.com Can we close that issue, please?
            as feature from 7.12 works well

            Actually, is this a dup of JRASERVER-17783 which was fixed in 7.12? Maybe the latest version already has this?

            +1 for this, we have a group of senior people who need to be able to edit the team's filters; plus the current single-owner restriction causes big problems when the owner is off sick or on vacation.

            Our workaround is to have a special user account that owns all our shared filters (&dashboards) whose password is shared across our senior team members, but that's obviously far from ideal, and means everyone has to log out and log back in as this special user to make any changes.

            Going from JIRA 7.8.1 to 8.6.1 soon I think we will get rid of that problem.
            Yes. Thanks @Ben Spiller - since JIRA 7.12 there is group ownership of a filter.
