Saved Filters
Saved Filters in Approval Path
You can now save your customized filters in both the Approvals and Definitions tabs.
Saved filters are stored within Jira add‑on properties using the REST API. All users with appropriate permissions can access and modify this data - our app doesn’t restrict or prevent these changes, so please be mindful.
