Hi all,
We use about 10 different labels in our Jira, sometimes we use more than one label per issue.
But sometimes someone makes a spelling error when entering a label and the wrong label is used on a issue.
Does anyone know how to search for issues with an 'unknown' label?
I tried the search syntax: Labels not in (label1, label2, label3)
But that only works when just 1 label is used. As soon as two or more labels are used, it will no longer find anything.
Best regards,
Floris

The only way you could do this would be to identify the mis-spelt label - imagine you've got Jira, Gira and Jirra labels, you'd need to know the two misspelt ones in order to search for them.
As you can't really search for a negative, and Jira has no way to list all the labels in one go (heck that was the first app I wrote for Jira server was a simple report to list them all)
There are things built into Jira that can help you with this though, other than a flat list of all labels.
Run the search "labels is not empty" and save it as a filter.
Create a new dashboard, and add these three gadgets to it (frankly, you'll probably only need the third one, as it's the easiest to read...)
All of them allow you to click on the label to take you to a search for that label!
