How can I search for all issues that have the same Feature Name and Feature Summary?

[Steven Johnson]

I am trying to figure out how I can perform a search that will bring up all Features that have the same "Feature Name" and "Summary". 

So for example, if I have a Feature with the name "Feature 1" and the summary title of that Feature is also "Feature 1", I'd like to be able to find those specific Features. OR vice versa would work as well, looking for Features that have different Feature Name and Summary.

Thanks!

Hello @Steven Johnson 

Comparing one field to another in JQL is not supported.

How often do you need to do this?

It could be handled in an Automation Rule.

You could create a rule with a Schedule trigger that runs a JQL to get the Features. You could add a Condition to compare the Summary to the Name using the smart value for the Name. You could add a step to send an email message to alert you about the Feature that has Name matching Summary.

This assumes you have permission to create Automation Rules, which you may not. In that case you would need to work with you Jira Admins to get the rule created.

Thanks for the response, Trudy! I was hoping that there was a way to do this somehow, possibly with some nice complex JQL query, and not have to use a scheduled trigger.

It's not an urgent need or anything, more of something I was hoping to throw on a dashboard for a bit to track some stuff.

Sounds like a schedule rule will be the only way to perform this check for now.

Thanks for the reply!

Hello Steven,

An alternative would be 

1. Create a custom field that will be set based on a match between the Summary and Name.

2. Use an Automation Rule to review the Features periodically and set the field appropriately

3. Optionally add Automation Rules that will be triggered by changes to the Name or Summary fields of a Feature and execute the comparison and setting of the custom field again.

4. Base your filter on that custom field. Then you can use that filter in a dashboard gadget.
