How to search for issues whose Acceptance Criteria have been changed in the current sprint ?
@Hi @Sandeep Bamrah
Hi @Sandeep Bamrah
As JQL doesn't support history searches for custom fields, I'd like to suggest a solution from my team. If you are Jira Cloud user, check out Issue History for Jira plugin. You can add any custom field to the table columns and see all changes for the scope of issues for any sprint, project, assignee, etc.
1. Filter issues by Project, Assignee, Sprint, Label, etc.
2. Select the appropriate date range.
3. Add custom and standard fields to the grid using the ‘Columns’ menu.
Get all past changes in one report.

Are you working with Jira Cloud or Jira Server/Data Center? If your Jira URL is similar to the following then you are working with Jira Cloud.

Natively Jira does not provide general functionality for searching for issues where a particular field has changed within a particular time period. There is special functionality for this that applies to just a few system fields. Refer to
A workaround would be for you to use a custom field to keep track of the date that the Acceptance Criteria field changed. You would have to use an Automation For Jira rule to detect that the field changed and then update the custom field. You could then search for issues based on the date on that custom field being within a date range.
There might also be third party apps that you could add to your Jira system that would extend the search capabilities to help you execute such a search without having to make a custom field or Automation Rule. You could search the Atlassian Marketplace to see what is available.

This doesnt work.
I tried running a JQL with "Acceptance Criteria" changed
and it gives the below error -
"History searches do not support the 'Acceptance Criteria' field."

Hello @Pankaj Choudhary
Welcome to the Atlassian community.
That is correct. As I mentioned the CHANGED operator works for only certain fields and would not work for "Acceptance Criteria". That is why I suggested an alternate approach.
