See GitHub issues created during a specific time range

I would like to view all of the GitHub issues opened during a specific time range for a single repository. For example, all issues opened during the month of December 2022.

I can query for issues created after a specific date with the following query: is:issue created:>2022-12-01, however attempting to limit the search to exclude issues opened after December 31st is not currently working for me. And I don't immediately see the syntax in the GitHub documentation [1].

Solution

  • You need to use the range operator for these searches (which is ..):

    is:issue is:open created:2022-01-01..2022-12-31 .

    See the docs here: https://docs.github.com/en/search-github/getting-started-with-searching-on-github/understanding-the-search-syntax#query-for-dates
