JQL for Sort on Critical Priority

[Gina Nace]

I have a filter that is currently looking for "QA Status" = "Ready for Testing". I would also like the filter to order by priority description; critical issues being first. I can't find the right syntax to make this happen. Any suggestions?

You can use ORDER BY priority DESC to show the highest priority issues in your search first. The order in which priorities appear is based on the priority scheme configuration for that project, so if "Critical" is considered the highest-listed priority in your project's configuration, they should appear first.

Ahh ok, that's what I was missing! I need to check the priority scheme configuration. Thank you!
