How do I filter in progress tickets that are in the backlog?

[Bridgette Dennis]

I just started with a new team and they are not completing work within a sprint . It appears that they are doing work within the backlog as I am finding some tickets that say "In Progress" . I have over 150 tickets in my backlog and would like to pull all the tickets up that have been worked on . Is there a query for this ?

Hello @Bridgette Dennis 

Welcome to the community.

This should work:

project = <yourProject> and (sprint is empty or sprint not in opensprints()) and statuscategory = "In Progress" order by created DESC

If your board includes multiple projects or is constrained to a subset of issues in 1..n projects the filter will have to be adjusted to include the filter used for the board.
