how do I use advanced search back to specific date?

[Bbushell]

I'm using the following query project in (name) AND issuetype in (Bug, "QA - Bug", "Release - Bug") and "Start date" >= "07012018"

@Bbushell

If its a single project then change the "project in" to "project ="
also,

start date is a custom field, check the name for correctness

hope this helps

I have 2 projects, Im trying to pull all logged issues starting 6 weeks ago that are listed as bugs... But I cant get the syntax right for the >= date format and cant find a help channel to verify

Hi @Bbushell , have you tried using CreatedDate >= "6w 12d"  

or you could use CreatedDate >= "-12d"

weeks and day is whatever you would need to look at

• try exporting a .csv with all fields, then check for "start date" or some variation to see if the name is correct.
• as for the >= mmddyyyy, the format is correct and should work fine.
• Another idea would be to check the names of the bugs (Bug, "QA - Bug", "Release - Bug"), assuming "QA - Bug", "Release - Bug" names are auto-validated in the query and Bug was unchanged as an issuetype
