Search filters for bugs and stories can only be created by users who have write permissions on the project, i.e. the project owner and writers
Shared search filters can be viewed by everyone who has access to the project, i.e. the project owner, writers and readers
Private search filters can only be viewed by the user who created that filter
Creating Search Filters

- Click on Create a New Search Filter Link. This option can be found on the drop-down menu for Project Tracking as well
- Modify your search criteria using the options on the form.
- Click on Search to see what bugs and stories are displayed by the filter.
- At this point, the search criteria has not been saved. Ensure that you give the filter a name and click on Save. Sharing a filter will make it viewable to other users on your project.
