Search

  • Tell YouTrack what you're looking for using search queries such as for: me #unresolved or #critical updated: {this week}.
  • Use smart query completion in the search box to reduce typing (press Ctrl + SPACE to invoke the completion list at will).
  • Save searches and share them with other users to create an additional navigation layer.
See Help: Search for Issues and Help: Saved Searches for details.

Commands

  • To select several issues from the list, press Space at each of them.
  • Press any letter or Ctrl + Alt + J right in the list of issues to apply one or several commands to all selected issues.
  • Commands are very similar to search queries: for example, to change state of selected issues to "In Progress" and assign them to tag "Fix it today", type state: in Progress tag: Fix it today in the Command window.
See Help: Commands for details.

Navigate

Navigation is easier with keyboard shortcuts:

  • UP/DOWN arrow keys navigate up and down the list of issues.
  • LEFT/RIGHT arrow keys help collapse/expand issue details, such as issue description and comments.
  • Enter opens the highlighted issue in a separate page.
See Help: Navigate for details.
