Searching Jira for label !=

jira labels

I have a label set for some of my issues. When searching labels="ab" I get the relevant ones, but I cannot seem to find the right syntax for asking labels!="ab". How can I query for the ones not equal to ab?

!= works for me although it only shows issues that have labels If I want to show all issues that do not have a certain label I have to do

(labels is EMPTY OR labels != 'mylabel')

This behaviour is currently intended by the Jira-Team. A suggestion to change it has been posted in the Developer-Jira and can be voted for.
