Issues commented by me in JIRA - jira

Question

As per JIRA documentation
http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/latest
The following filter will show the issues opned by me (Current User).
reporter = currentUser()
Is there a filer that will show issues commented by me? something like the following does not work...
comment by = currentUser()

Answer 1

if you know the name of the user (lets assume the name is Tom you can do:
issueFunction in commented("by Tom")
you can also filter it by date of the comment like:
issueFunction in commented("after -1d by Tom")
UPDATE: this requires ScriptRunner being installed in JIRA server (as JBert pointed out)

Answer 2

You can use the Activity Stream gadget with a filter configured by username and activity type. Note that this requires a case-sensitive username, not the friendly Display Name.
Activity Stream gadget configuration:

(I posted a variation of this answer elsewhere but have improved my filter since then and the new filter is more salient to this question anyhow.)

Answer 3

You could also follow the approach presented by Matt Doar:
Use a participants field from the JIRA Toolkit plugin and query that

It's not a a complete answer but maybe a step in the right direction...

Answer 4

I had the same problem and
issueFunction in commented("by username")
worked for me
The following query identifies tickets in which current (or some other particular) user was mentioned in comments:
comment ~ currentUser()

Answer 5

The new scriptrunner can do lots of things e.g. find issues with comments issueFunction in hasComments(), find issues with comments that are not older than 7 days issueFunction in commented("after -7d") and also issue comments from users or groups.

Answer 6

You can try that workaround I am current using this expression on my saved search:
comment ~ "your.username.here"
This in fact catch the comments where I was mentioned, but if you mention yourself probably should works. I have not tried by myself.
My current Jira is a cloud based one, so I can't tell you exactly which version is.

Answer 7

In JIRA v7.3.0, the watcher field works well, if autowatch is enabled:
watcher = currentUser()
How to enable
Profile > Preferences > Autowatch : [inhert, disabled, enabled]
Issues that you create or comment on will automatically be watched for future changes.

Answer 8

For filtering issues in which you have been mentioned, try comment ~ currentUser()

Answer 9

This (to my knowledge) cannot be completed using JQL, even with a plugin. If you have DB access, the query is simple:
SELECT pkey, summary FROM jiraissue, jiraaction WHERE jiraissue.id = jiraaction.issueid AND author = '<insert_jira_username>';

Answer 10

If you're talking only about the current user, there is a personal Activity Stream in your profile
https://xxx.atlassian.net/secure/ViewProfile.jspa
It includes actions other than comments, but does provide an RSS feed which you could filter only comments with:
<category term="comment"/>

Answer 11

This is the query to know the issues I am involved in:
SELECT a.pkey, a.summary FROM jiraissue AS a left join jiraaction AS b on a.id = b.issueid
where b.author = 'jira_username' OR a.REPORTER = 'jira_username' OR a.ASSIGNEE = 'jira_username'
group by a.pkey order by a.CREATED
This is the query to know all issues raised in the last 24 hours.
select REPORTER, SUMMARY from jiraissue
WHERE CREATED > DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 1 DAY) order by CREATED DESC;
