Hello, 

How could I restrict a Jql to 10 issues ?

Hi @Mackowiak, Guillaume Welcome to the community!

You can refine your query to return precise results by adding more conditions to your query. If you are on cloud, it Is not possible to set number of results returned. Check https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-31384

If you are on Data center, you can add &maxResults=50 to your filter query url to restrict.

Hope this is helpful!

Hi Mackowiak - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

What are you trying to do by only showing 10 issues? 

One thing might be to create your filter and then add it to a Dashboard using the Filter Results gadget. Then in the gadget you can tell it to initially just show 10 issues.

Hi John, 

This restriction is requested by the customer in test phase mode and will be removed in Prod mode.

That makes no sense at all to me, trying to restrict something for text mode that naturally gives you more. What harm would there be if it shows 20 or 100 values instead of 10 in the test mode?

Welcome @Mackowiak, Guillaume 

Do you mean to show 10 issues per JQL search? JQL will show all of the issues that are matching a certain query, this means it could show either more or less than 10 depending on your project. There is no option that can limit the JQL to show 10 issues only.
