When a user is removed, the enhanced searches they set up no longer update. This is an issue when users leave that have set up shared team boards. As there is no way to change ownership the enhanced searches all need to be recreated. Also, the other team members are confused as the search just stops updating with no easy way to know what happened.
The lack of this feature is causing me quite a few problems. We have created dozens of queries to monitor a large scalad agile project and I have to do the handover of configurations to the client, which results in having to ask him to recreate one by one the queries previously created by me.
To be honest, this is a must have feature. Especially if we do not have the possibility to add additional editors to an enhanced search next to the owner.
People might be on holiday or ill for a longer time period, are leaving the company or just not working for the project anymore. How do we handle such a scenario?
It is a nightmare to completely re-create all of them as filters, dashboards, quick filters and swimelanes have to be updated manually (due to the new ID).
We are considering making Enhanced Search available in the normal Jira search bar, and as such, filter management would be like the way Jira does it.
Does this help with changing owners, permissions etc?
If this means that we get the same “permission” functionality of native Jira filters for enhanced searches, it is a clear yes. It would help tremendously and solve all problems related to ownership and editor rights!
