Save your search as a filter

https://support.atlassian.com/jira-core-cloud/docs/save-your-search-as-a-filter/

You can save issue searches as filters. Filters let you:


 Share and email search results with your colleagues, as well as people outside of your organization
 Create lists of favorite filters
 Have search results emailed to you according to your preferred schedule
 View and export the search results in various formats (for example, RSS or Excel)
 Display the search results in a report format
 Display the search results in a dashboard gadget

Manage shared filters


https://support.atlassian.com/jira-cloud-administration/docs/manage-shared-filters/

A shared filter is a filter whose creator has shared that filter with other users. You can share a filter with:
 Project—All members or members with specific project roles working on one or multiple projects.
 Group—A group of Jira users.
 Open—Any user who is logged-in to your Jira Cloud site. 
 Public—Public sharing means sharing the dashboard with users who are not logged in to your Jira Cloud site. Note that if you share a filter
publicly, it will be visible and searchable on the internet. See Prevent or remove public access for more information.
 Private—Only you can view the filter.
You can change the ownership of any user's shared filter that will allow the new owner to edit and modify the shared filter. For more information
about how to use filters, see Saving your search as a filter.

Best practices for using issue filters


Beware of the change

Filters are application-level items. That means changing a filter will change the results of the search for every element using that same filter. Make
sure to check for shared users and subscriptions to that filter before making any changes, so you know who will be affected by it.

Write efficient JQL queries

Creating queries for filters can be tricky: Jira provides many different ways to filter to get similar results. Filters should always be based on
projects, so they focus on information relevant to you. It can be useful to start with a more general search (e.g. by Project or Status) and then
narrow your scope to the specific information you need (e.g Priority, fields values). It’s also highly recommended to create queries that will
require minimal updating. Be consistent in the way you create searches, so they will be easier to understand. The basic concepts behind creating
JQL queries are listed here. If you want to try something more complex, try the functions provided here.

Keep it consistent

Similarly, you will need to be consistent when naming filters. Since all users can create and share their filters, your Jira instance may be dealing
with a great many number of filters. If there is no naming convention, it will eventually be difficult to find the filter you’re looking for. There’s also
a major risk of duplicate filter names. That’s why it’s highly recommended to define a naming convention for all users to follow.

Be sure to check shared filters for any users whose access needs to be deactivated (e.g. when they’re leaving the company) and their filter
ownership transferred to an active user. The most efficient way would be to have one designated user managing and editing these.
