Summary

The quick search "Saved Filter" inside Gadgets is not listing all available filters that match the search criteria. It returns a list of 10 items that match the search criteria and then does consecutive searches over those first 10 items, missing filters that were not included in the first results.

Affects

• JIRA 7.1
• Dashboard Gadgets
• Confluence Macros with JIRA filters

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create 11 or more Filters that start with the same word. e.g: "Filter A","Filter B", etc
2. Add the "Two Dimensional Filter Statistics" gadget to a Dashboard
3. Search for the 11th filter by typing "Filter K"

Expected Results

The Filter is found because the search matches the filter's name.

Actual Results

• Typing the first name returns 10 filters. Good so far.
• Typing the start of the second word brings no results or a sub group of the previous 10 results.

Notes

• Doesn't affect JIRA 6.4 and previous.
• Searching for "K" in the example, will find the 11th filter but if the site has another 10 filters with the letter K, it may not. Making it unsearchable.

Workarounds

• Use the Advanced Search to find the filter (not available in Confluence macros)
• Add a unique word to the filter.
• Search for the second word. This will only work if the 10 results for the second word include the filter.
