I cannot share filters from Manage filters view

[Alena Fricova]

Hey, 

I noticed that it is not possible to share filter from Manage filters view. There are no edit options.

I know that there is a workaround (sharing within selected filter), but still, I want to know, why is this problem here.

I tried it on v8.22.0 and v8.22.1 with the same result.

Thank you, 

Alena

Hi @Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_ ,

I am in the same situation as @Alena Fricova. The global permissions are OK, I can not edit sharing parameters on my filters on the manage filter menu.

But I found a workaround. On the filter you can modify the permissions of its by clicking on details > Edit permissions.

FYI, I opened a bug on Atlassian Support and I am currently waiting the answer.

(we are on the 8.22.1)

Regards,

Antoine

Hi @Alena Fricova ,

in order to share your filter you should have "Create Shared Objects" global permission.

Please ask to your JIRA Admin to provide you that grants.

Hope this helps,

Hi, unfortunatelly. I am JIRA admin and i have all necesarry permissions. I can also share filters, but not from Manage filters view.

You need to be the owner of a filter in order to have capability to edit/share it.

In order to change a filter owner please take a llok here https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/how-to-update-jira-filter-owned-by-other-users-as-an-admin-1019411702.html

You can find two workarounds :

Option 2

• Click on Issues > Manage filters
• Search for the filter you want to edit
• Open the link for the filter in a new tab
