Suggested Issues Configuration

When configuring suggested issues for a JSM stream, use By Jira Issue Filter as the source. The filter should:

  • Not exclude closed or resolved issues - the Team Journal and My Overview screens use resolved issue counts in their statistics

  • Not return too many issues - use currentUser() in the filter to keep the list manageable
