Is there a way to go back in time on a Jira board?

[Deleted user]

Hi! I work with a team of IT architects and we use the kanban board to keep track of our workflow. The manager wants me to create a report that shows all of the stories that were in progress, blocked, backlogged, and done on a particular day in the past. 

The issue is that I have already released some items from the board since then. Is there a way to go back in time to see how the board looked on day in the past?

The suggestion from @Ravi Sagar _Sparxsys_ will give you information on issues changed to the specified status on the specified date.

If you want to know the issues that were in a status on a specified date, regardless of what day they were changed to that status, use the WAS operator.

project=X and status WAS Y ON <date>

You would have to do a filter for each status value to get the list of issues in each status on that date.

There is not a way to display that in a Kanban board in Jira because those boards display issues based on their current status.

Hi @[deleted] 

You can't do that for the entire board. I use eazyBI to create a report showing issues status on a specific date.

Or you can do it using a JQL using this query.

status changed TO Done on "2023/01/01"

I hope it helps.
