How do I filter issues to a specific file or folder?

Last updated on Feb 19, 2026

Short Answer: Use the All files dropdown, open the file tree, search with Search files..., and check one or more files/folders to filter the issue list.

PreRequisites

  1. Be signed in

  2. Open the PR issue list page

Steps

  1. Click the All files dropdown in the filter row above the list.
    A file tree dropdown appears with a Search files... input.

  2. Type a filename or folder in Search files... to find items, or expand folders and check the file(s) you want (e.g., check user.js).
    The selected file(s) are ticked in the file tree.

  3. Close the file dropdown; the issue list updates to show issues that reference the selected files/folders.
    Only issues related to your selection are shown.

  4. To see all files again, reopen All files and uncheck selections or clear the Search files... term.
    The list returns to include all files.

Troubleshooting

  1. The file I expect doesn't appear in the file tree.
    Likely Cause: The file wasn’t changed in this PR/branch or is outside the reviewed branch.
    Action: Check the branch shown next to issues (e.g., tags like main or develop). If needed, re-run the review for the correct branch.

Note: You can select multiple files or entire folders to combine filters.
