Hi @Vibin ,

Jira admins can delete the filters by going to admin settings --> System --> Filters 
(Direct URL: https://<baseURL>/secure/admin/filters/ViewSharedFilters.jspa)

Search for the filter and you get option to change owner or Delete filter.

Hi @Vibin ,

Jira only stores who saved the filter in the database, so, unfortunately, it's not possible to search for users who have saved the filters.

If you want to delete the filter, then you need to just click "Delete" again on the pop-up screen

Hi @Vibin ,

This could be due to duplicate filter names in the database. To confirm this, you can run the following SQL query:

SELECT filtername FROM searchrequest GROUP BY filtername HAVING (COUNT(filtername) > 1);

Similar issue but for boards is explained in https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/illegalargumentexception-passed-list-had-more-than-one-value-when-attempting-to-edit-an-agile-board-s-filter-779159180.html

Issue got resolved by executing the Query in DB

delete FROM jiraschema.searchrequest

Hi @abhishek_sharma03 ,

We followed the same steps using the admin access but we get the below error,

This filter is used elsewhere. Deleting it may impact other people's work.

  • This filter is marked by 2 people as a favorite

Is there a query to identify who has marked this as favourite
