Is there a way to change the default fields in a Basic Search?

[Rich Jackson]

When I choose "Issues">"Search for Issues" JIRA presents the fields Project; Type; Status; Assignee and a text box.

I would like to change or add to the list - specifically Resolution.

Is this possible?

Hi @Rich Jackson,

there is an improvement it Atlassian’s backlog for this, therefore, it is not possible at the moment: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-31745.

As a workaround you could configure a browser shortcut or Alfred custom search with JQL that would use the predefined set of fields (special characters in JQL have to be escaped for the URL).

Link to search with default set: {jira_url}/secure/QuickSearch.jspa?searchString={query}

Link to search with Fixed Resolution and current user as Creator: {jira_url}/issues/?jql=resolution%20%3D%20Fixed%20AND%20creator%20in%20(currentUser())%20AND%20{query}%20~%20%22text%22%20order%20by%20lastViewed%20DESC

The request for this functionality was created a decade ago lol !
