To create a filter in Jira, you conduct a search and then click Save as to convert the search criteria into a filter, giving it a name and clicking Submit. You can access your filters by clicking the Issues and filters tab in the left navigation menu, where they appear under the STARRED section, and edit them from the View all filters screen. Additionally, you can subscribe to a filter to receive periodic email updates of issues that match your filter criteria.
