YouTrack 3.3: Advanced Full-Text Search

We've been working hard on our extended search query language, to make the process of filtering issues as fast and comfortable as possible. But we know that you are using full-text search a lot, and this time we focused on enhancing this side of YouTrack's search goodies.

Text Search Inside Specific Fields

Now you can narrow your search down to specific fields, such as Summary, Description, Comments, Attachments or even code-formatted text! Of course, you get intelligent completion and highlighting. Impressive? Here are couple of examples:


You get all issues that have 'custom' and 'field' words in summary.


Finds all issues matching the exact phrase 'add new custom field type' in description.


You'll get all issues with attachments that contain 'scrum' in any part of the attached file name.

Searches for all issues that contain the word 'agile' in summary.


Returns all issues that don't contain the exact phrase 'scrum board' in their comments.


You'll find all issues that contain the word 'MyClass' within the code tag in their descriptions or comments.




Customizable Workflow Syntax

We've added a new getUser method that allows you to find and perform operations on a specific user by their username in custom workflow language. For example, now you can notify a user mentioned in a comment or description.


Multilingual Search

YouTrack has always supported text search in multiple languages, such as: French, Spanish, German, Russian, Swedish, and others. We have dramatically improved text search quality and added morphological analysis for a number of languages, such as Czech, Arabic, Chinese, and Japanese.

'Has:description' Search Query

We've added one more attribute that you can use with the 'has' keyword. Now you can filter all issues that have a description, using the query has:description.

View Image Attachment

Now we open an image attachment in the pop-up window, so you won't be closing your issue by closing an attachment any longer.
