Filter out JIRA tickets by id

jira

Solution

The `id` field is the number that represents the issue in the database, what you want to do is use the `key` instead, like:

key != MYPROJ-1234

And that should work. As a side note, you can view the ID of the issue by doing:

/rest/api/2/issue/MYPROJ-1234

And in the JSON Repsonse, you'll see:

{
    "id": "82351",
    "key": "MYPROJ-1234",
    ...
}

So if you really wanted to, you could then do:

id != 82351

Problem

Is it possible to create a filter in JIRA that filters out specific jira ids. I have a filter for my scrum board but there are a couple of jiras on there I dont actually care about. I tried the below but the JIRA still appears. ``` and id != MYPROJ-1234 ``` Is the ID not the JIRA key? What is the id? Thanks
