search

This module contains functionality that lets you search for issues in YouTrack.

Functions

search

static search(folder, query, user)

Returns issues that match a search query. If a sort order is not specified explicitly in the query, the issues that are returned are sorted in random order.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
folder	WatchFolder	The project, tag, or saved search to set as the search context. If the value for this parameter is not provided, the search includes all issues. This is equivalent to a search that is performed in the user interface with the context set to Everything.
query	string	A YouTrack search query.
user	User	The user account that executes the search query. The list of issues that is returned excludes issues that the specified user does not have permission to view. If the value for this parameter is not provided, the search query is executed on behalf of the current user.

Example

var search = require('@jetbrains/youtrack-scripting-api/search');
...
var query = 'for: me State: {In Progress} issue id: -' + issue.id;
var inProgress = search.search(issue.project, query, ctx.currentUser);
if (inProgress.isNotEmpty()) {
  // Do smth with a found set of issues.
}
