Searchable Custom Fields

Custom fields are great -- well done :)
We'd love to be able to search based on a custom field's contents.
For example, right now we use custom fields to record a task's job number, which matches our filing system. Would be great if we could search the job number in ClickUp and have that task appear in results.

Hey all! Great news!
Now you can find tasks easier than ever before, with new Custom Field searching! Just input your text-based Custom Field value into any view search bar!
Look up a contact by their email, find client tasks by searching for their website, or locate an email within your index by subject line—the possibilities are endless!
Find more details here: https://dev-doc.clickup.com/p/ad-88642/release-281
Searching via Custom Task ID can be done in global search! For any global search feedback, please check out the board for that feature here: https://clickup.canny.io/feature-requests/p/search-v3

Is there some way to filter out the Custom Field columns, like if we have a report for multiple months and only want to see the columns labeled "May" or "December"?

It is still not covering main search function... 😞

From a ticker: User would like to be able to apply People custom field to views such as Workload, Timeline and Box views, to examine multiple roles assigned to a task.

Type in task ID to get to that task
Gunnlaugur Þór Briem
Hi. I know the ID of a task, say
CLIENT-304
. I don't know the name. I want to go to the task. How do I do it?I want to just hit G (or whatever) and type in that task ID. Takes milliseconds, done! 😍 But nope, I can't find any “go to task” action or keyboard shortcut. 😕
So I try typing the task ID into the search. But nope, the search doesn't match on task ID. 😮 At least not ranked near the top.
So I try typing the task ID into the filter box in the Everything view. But nope, the filter box can't be made to filter by task ID. 😣
As far as I can tell, there is _no UI_ to get to a task by its ID. I have to remember some part of the name or description and do a search (and wait N seconds because, my friends, that search... 😬), or add the “Custom Task ID” column and sort by it and manually skim down it, as if it's the stone age.
My workaround is to go to some other task in a browser, and replace the task ID in the URL. That workaround doesn't help in the ClickUp app, only in a browser. If I'm on my phone, I'm SOL.
I like ClickUp overall but this omission is astonishing. It jabs at my heart every day. Please fix it. Thanks :)

Hi,
Our company runs our development off of "ticket numbers" aka tasks. The search functionality that is within click-up doesn't allow for an easy search via ticket number. It actually doesn't match the number at all. I would recommend adding more in-depth search functionality to your platform.

Custom Task Search

The addition of the Custom Task ID is very helpful to be able to refer someone to. However, this field cannot be filtered or searched on, which makes it less useful than it should be. I have attempted many ways to search and filter on it but have had no success.
Please
add the ability to search on this field, it would be extremely helpful! Or document how it can be searched, if I missed it.Thank you for continuing to improve your product!
