Hi guys,

 

Just wondering if anyone can recommend a way to view version history for a permission scheme in JIRA?

 

Thanks,

 

David

It's not logged.  Unless your admins are copying the old schemes, you have no history.  The audit log can help you  if it is enabled, but there's no true history of change to config

Necro-posting this one because it still ranks well for anyone searching this exact question, and the underlying situation hasn't changed structurally: Jira Cloud (via Forge) still doesn't expose a native change-history event for permission scheme edits — Nic's answer above is still accurate.

For anyone landing here now: since there's no native version history, the workaround is usually either (a) periodic manual exports/screenshots to diff against later, which doesn't scale well, or (b) a scheduled snapshot + diff approach — capture the scheme's state on a schedule and compare against the previous capture to reconstruct what changed and roughly when.

Disclosure: I'm the developer behind a Marketplace app (Sphior Ledger for Jira) built around exactly this pattern, so take the mention with that context — but the snapshot+diff approach above works fine as a DIY pattern too if you'd rather build it yourself.
