Hopefully it won't be too long, been dying to use the AND/OR support in Projects. |

Is there (or will there be) a way to use nested queries to filter based on properties of related issues? For example if I want to search for "open sub-issues where the parent issue is assigned to me". Or "issues which have a sub-issue with the blocked label". |

Thank you for providing this feedback! Currently there is not a way to search through the issue hierarchy and perform hierarchical searches through both the parent issues and sub-issues. I'll note this request and share it with the team 👍 |

would it be possible to set the default search/sort? I prefer Also: the "clear filter" button doesn't clear - it reverts to the default |

Thank for for these notes! As for the default search filter, we don't currently have plans to change the default sort or allow you to customize it, but will keep this feedback in mind in case that changes. Noted on the feedback for the |

This is really nice so far, but I have small request: could you add a trailing space after the default search query? The majority of the time that I go to search the issues I want to add to the default search, but if I just select the box and start typing it gets attached to the |

I am not able to reproduce this on my end as I am given an extra space when clicking into the filter bar. Let me know if there are any other details that can help us look into this, such as how you are navigating to the filter bar on a page and whether this happens all of the time across all of your repositories. |

Ah, I think it might be due to me clicking "too soon". If I wait until the page fully stabilizes then there is an extra space, but if I click as soon as the bar appears then once it finishes loading my cursor is just before the space. |

For the record, I would still like something to change so that I can click when the bar appears, rather than needing to wait for the page to finish loading (which can take several seconds). |

I've ran into a bug when adding and removing label filter. Here are steps to reproduce: Search for issues, for example: Choose a label to filter only must have issues: Remove the label filter by clicking in the label menu: No issues are shown and an extra |

Feedback wanted
Thank you for participating in the advanced search for issues public preview. Please leave your feedback below on what is working well, any bugs you encounter, and what else you’d like to see!
To provide your feedback on other experiences released at the same time, please visit:
Writing advanced searches
From the repository Issues page, you can now build advanced queries using the
ANDandORkeywords, as well as nested queries using parentheses up to 5 layers deep. Here is the existing search syntax documentation for reference.This search allows you to find issues that are either bugs or have high priority.
This search allows you to find issues that were created in the last week that are either bugs or tasks, or medium priority ones you've authored.
Things to note
repo,org, anduserfields currently function asORfilters when a space is included between them, rather than anANDsearch as it works for other fields. These fields are not yet supported in nested queries.Looking for feedback
