Type it where Jira already accepts JQL

1. Open issue search (or a board / backlog / gadget filter).
2. Switch to JQL if needed.
3. Type a function, for example:

issue IN overdue()
issue IN stuckInProgress("7")
issue IN staleIssues()

Quoted string arguments are required where a function takes a parameter (days, issue keys, and similar).

Save the query as a filter, board filter, or dashboard gadget like any other JQL.

Or use Start here / Try it in the app: pick a question, copy the JQL, or open it in issue search. Nothing is saved until you say so.

Important notes

• Personal “my issues” queries should use native JQL (assignee = currentUser() …). App functions cannot safely embed currentUser() because Jira caches function results site-wide.
• Business-day and weekend functions use a shared UTC calendar so every user sees a consistent answer.
• Function results can lag issue changes by up to about one hour (hourly precomputation refresh).
• NOT IN follows normal JQL rules (empty fields are not included in negation).
