How can I filter a sub-value in the summary field?

[Judith Alvarez]

I have need to filter a sub portion of a value from a summary field such as "black-small" from the list.  The prefix and numeric extension should be ignored.  I just want black-small:

dogs-black-small005

dogs-white-large001

dogs-white-small004

dogs-brown-small007

dogs-black-small001

@Judith Alvarez Try below JQL

Summary ~ "black-small*"

Hope this helps!

Good one! Some characters can stop the match from working sometimes though.

May also depend on Cloud vs Server

Thanks.  I had already tried that unsuccessfully. It finally worked once I moved the value to the front of the line (I had multiple values).
