How to get per-user change logs with REST API

Chris Dunford

Is there a way to get all changes made by a specified user over the last N days, e.g., "All changes made by Homer Simpson in the last week"?

I don't see a way to do this with the REST API that doesn't require getting the change log for every issue, which would take forever.

Hello Chris,

Specific user activities can be retrieved by the Activity Stream REST API, like: 

https://yourdomain.atlassian.net/activity?streams=user+IS+admin

Where admin would be the username of the user you would like to return the activities.

For more information, you can check the documentation below:

Consuming an Activity Streams feed

Also, you can use the Activity Stream gadget and filter by JQL queries in order to get the activities from the user you want directly in the UI, without needing the REST API:

Let me know if this information helps.
