Use Shortcut Search Operators for a Precise Story Queue
Open Shortcut Advanced Story Search and combine operators to narrow Stories by type, owner, state and dates. Multiple operators use AND logic.
You need access to the workspace and the real Team display name or owner mention name. Advanced Custom Fields are not supported as search operators.
Example: type:bug team:Payments is:started !has:pr finds started bug Stories for Payments without an associated pull request. Check a few results before using this as a review queue.
Step-by-step guide
Open Advanced Story Search
Use the search box at the top of Shortcut, or press /. Select Advanced Story Search so you can inspect the matching Story results rather than mixed entity results.
Start with the narrowest question
Enter type:bug team:Payments using your actual Team display name. Quote a multi-word name, such as team:"Payments Platform", rather than leaving words unqualified.
Add the workflow condition
Add is:started to restrict the queue to active work. Use !has:pr to find records lacking a pull request; absence of a linked PR is a review signal, not proof no code exists.
Check dates and sample matches
For a dated review, add updated:2026-11-01..2026-11-04. Open matching Stories and verify their state and metadata. Do not mix numerical dates with relative terms in a range.
Common mistakes
Using two type operators
Only one type operator is supported per query. Multiple ordinary operators combine with AND, rather than creating an OR search.
