Hi Vitaliy. Your addon sounds great. We've attempted to leverage the new JQL functions that JQL Pro adds to JIRA. However, after installing the JQL Pro addon within our Cloud deployment, we're unable to see these new function options within JIRA's JQL advanced search field. Could you please provide some simple usage documentation so we can see if this may be user error VS a bug? Thanks!
Examples of how to leverage functions like linkType("Is blocked by") or hasLinkType("Is blocked by") within a JQL field.

Account Deactivated reporter Thanks Vitaliy. We're specifically interested in leveraging advanced JQL functions like this within JIRA Agile to help define the colors of card (on the fly) within the configure controls of JIRA Agile dashboards. Do you know if JQL Pro based functions can be used in that way?

repo owner @mgauvin Unfortunately, JQL Pro (as any other Cloud Add-On) cannot be integrated into internals of the JIRA. It's usage is limited to the JIRA REST API capabilities.
Therefore, you could search only using the Add-On view. It returns the links to the issues as well as the issues keys, which you can use in your filters.
If you need to have dynamically updated filter - it is also possible to certain extent. After successful search, you can save your JQL Pro query as a filter, which will be updated automatically (not immediately though - there is a certain interval)

Account Deactivated reporter Understood Vitaliy. Thanks. When we click the "Save as Filter (JQL Pro Filter)" button on your UI after a successful search, it processes for a moment, then does not appear to go anywhere. Where is the new dynamic filter created and how is referenceable? Thanks for the nearly instantaneous feedback by the way! ;)

repo owner @mgauvin No problem :)
You should navigate to the Issues -> Manage Filters section, and then look for filters owned by the Add-On:

Account Deactivated reporter Hi Vitaliy. That's what we assumed ... though when we click the Save as Filter button, it does not seem to create the filter for us. Note that we just tried again a moment ago (just in case there was some lag time). Here's a screenshot. Any recommendations?

Oh, that is not how it is supposed to be
I will check if there was a problem with the Add-On, and will let you know once I've got anything
Cheers
-
repo owner @mgauvin Could you please specify which version of the Add-On is currently installed in your instance?
-
Account Deactivated reporter Sure. We are currently on 1.5.0-AC.

Account Deactivated reporter - changed status to open
Reopening the ticket for the moment.
