Description/Features

For the time  being Jira doesn't provide any way to search and filter on Security Levels. More information about this limitation here: http://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-2925

This plugin adds a new customfield called Security Level Searcher allowing to search on security levels. That's a light and efficient workaround.

The plugin has been implemented and tested on Jira 3.9.3.

Installation

  • Stop Jira
  • Copy the ilog-plugin-customfield-securitylevelsearch-1.0.jar to your WEB-INF/lib directory
  • Restart Jira
  • Go to Administration / Customfields
  • Add a new customfield: you will be able to select "Security Level Searcher" customfield type
  • Reindex Jira.
  • Your customfield is now available from your Issue Navigator (depending on the context you defined earlier when configuring the customfield) as a free text field searcher

Usage

As it is a free text field, you can fill in the name of the level you are looking for. To look for issues that have no security levels, search on the "none" value.
Some examples:

  • public
  • private
  • pub*
  • public OR none
  • ...

More about the text fields search abilities: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/v3.9/querysyntax.html

BTW, the search result won't return issues you are not allowed to see...

    Thank you very much for the plugin. It helps us a lot. It seems to work with JIRA 3.10 without problems. But I had to perform a Re-Index after the JIRA restart to be able to search for older issues, too.

    This plugin is an answer to my prayers - but one little prayer wasn't heard  - I'd like to be able to choose the security level from a Picker (As in create Issue) - and that the Issue Security levels was sorted alfabetically.

    Didn't work for me with 3.12.3 Enterprise. Just clicking on the Issue Navigator after adding a custom field threw exceptions. I tried reindexing as mentioned above, but that threw more exceptions.
