Use Jira Filter Results Gadgets

Add a Filter Results gadget to a dashboard when reviewers need a short actionable issue list. The saved filter supplies scope; the gadget supplies a presentation and column selection.

Step-by-step guide

01

Check access and scope

You need dashboard editing access and a saved filter the intended audience can use. Private issues remain subject to their own permissions.

02

Verify the saved filter

Create or verify the saved issue filter.

03

Add the results gadget

Open the dashboard and add a Filter Results gadget. Use Add and customize gadgets on the dashboard, then configure the saved filter in the Filter Results gadget.

  • Worked example: A release dashboard can list unresolved high-priority bugs with key, summary, assignee and target version. Keep a direct link to the complete search when the gadget displays only a subset.
04

Choose actionable columns

Select the filter and choose a limited useful column set.

05

Set a clear display limit

Set a result count that keeps required actions visible.

06

Compare recipient results

Compare the gadget with the underlying filter as a recipient.

07

Verify the result

The gadget shows expected issues with useful ownership information and the recipient can open the full filter.

Common mistakes

Avoid the main failure mode

A short result list can conceal additional matches beyond the display limit. Make the full search available before claiming the list is exhaustive.

Check the handoff edge case

Removing the owner column makes a risk list harder to act on. Include fields that support the intended follow-up.

How this works

  1. We save what you typed. No AI runs on this page.
  2. You create a free account.
  3. Vantage builds a PRD and dependency-ordered tickets from it inside your own workspace.

Why ask for an account? We’re a small team, and a full generation runs a multi-step AI pipeline that costs us real money. So we tie it to a free account instead of running it anonymously. You also get to keep the result and edit it.

Your text is only used to create your project, and it stays private to your account. If you don’t sign up, we delete it after 7 days. Privacy policy

Free to start. No credit card required.
