I need to get a pure clarifications about two fields called worklogAuthor and Assignee. When I'm using JQL, sometimes, I am unable to get expected results using worklogAuthor. but assignee does.
Hello @Asanka Garusinghe
Assignee means the person to whom the issue is assigned and workLogAuthor is the person to logs works on the issue i.e. Time spent on the issue can be logged by 10 people and each of them will be workLogAuthor but assignee can only be 1 person for each issue in jira.
thanks for the reply @Tarun Sapra what could be the main reason of getting two different results when I'm using advance searching for worklogs with below mentioned json parameters.
This one returns data. {"jql":"assignee = chinthaka AND worklogDate >= '2019-04-01' AND worklogDate <= '2019-04-30'"}But this doesn't return anything. {"jql":"worklogAuthor = chinthaka AND worklogDate >= '2019-04-01' AND worklogDate <= '2019-04-30'"}
Both are different queries
First one gets the issues which have assignee "chinthaka" and work was logged on the issues b/w the specified dates.
Second one tries to get issues which had work logged b/w the mentioned dates and the also on the issues the user "chinthaka" has logged work but not necessarily between the worklogDates mentioned.
thanks. @Tarun Sapra but however, we have an issue of getting worklogs for that corresponded user even he has logged his times in jira between aforementioned date period. once I'm consuming /api/2/issue/{issuekey}/worklog with specific issuekey, we have the response something like this for author. "author": {"name": "addon_is.origo.jira.tempo-plugin","key": "addon_is.origo.jira.tempo-plugin", .... }is there something going wrong?
Hello @Susanne Götz _Tempo_ ,
We are using Tempo Timesheets to store the Worklogs logged in JIRA.
When importing Worklogs with Power BI Connector, the WorklogAuthor is correct for issues in JSM project and issues in a project with XRay, but for issues in a JSW Project the Worklog Author is always "Tempo Timesheet". Why is that difference?
Thank you in advance.

Hi @Cristina Maria Rodrigues Garcia Araújo ,
You can see the differences in this KB for Jira worklogs and Tempo worklogs.

Hope this helps.
