Use JQL to find Jira work items with the same user as Reporter and Assignee
Platform Notice: Cloud Only - This article only applies to Atlassian apps on the cloud platform.
Summary
If you're looking for any work items that have the same user as both the Reporter and Assignee, Jira doesn't have the ability to provide this information "out-of-the-box." Some third-party apps do support this operation, so we'd suggest investigating to see if there are any that fit your needs.
Atlassian does not provide support for third-party apps, and can't make specific recommendations regarding their use. If you run into issues with third-party apps, please contact the app vendor for support.
JQL Search extensions app
The app JQL Search Extensions for Jira provides a shortcut to retrieve this information via JQL.
After installation of this third-party app, the below query will help you to get the required results and get all issues where the assignee and reporter are the same.
