What attributes are used by Quick Search, and is Quick Search limited to recently modified work items?

Hello,

The quick search is usually a "full text search" that looks at description, summary, and other text attributes. However, if the search term is a number, it searches for that work item number... to search for a number within the work item text, use a quoted string, e.g., "1234".

An asterisk can be used as a wild card, but there are some restrictions on how this works that can make it a little quirky.

The little down arrow by the search box shows the scope of the search, selecting a project area and whether the to search all work items or only those that are not resolved. You are probably search for "Unresolved work items" so it is only showing you recent ones.

Hope this helps,

Hi,

Please let me ask some questions about quick search.

On web UI, when opening a project, there is a "Quick Search" box at the upper right of the screen.
I want to know how the "Quick Search" works.

Q1,
Which attribute of the workitem is looked at when running Quick Search?

Q2,
As far as I have tested, some workitems are not hit by the Quick Search.
It seems that only the workitems whose "Modified Date" is within one week are hit.
Is there such a limitation or setting?
If so, please let me know how to change the limit or setting.

Thank you for your suggestion :)

>You are probably search for "Unresolved work items" so it is only showing you recent ones.
I'm selecting "All Work Items", but somehow this thing happens.
I will check what is wrong by myself again

Meanwhile, please let me ask following additional quesitons.

I asked following thing.
-It seems that only the workitems whose "Modified Date" is within one week are hit.
-Is there such a limitation or setting?


Q1, Can I understand there is no such a limitation or setting?

Q2, When creating a query, there is a condition "fulltext".
Is this condition same function as Quick Search?

I rebuilt the indices and the problem has been fix.
Now quick search is working as expected.

Thanks

I'm having the same issues... but in my case I'm only getting bugs from yesterday.... and I know there are more work items. When I looked into the jazz/admin site, all diagnostics have been run today, and the JFS Index looks fine...
