GetChangeLogAsync() does not return all changelogs...how do I fetch all?

Hi,

while working on an app that connects to our JIRA Server using Atlassian SDK, I noticed a strange thing - when calling GetChangeLogsAsync, I do not get all the change logs, just some of the latests (or it seems so). This seems to be especially true for worklog related items storing changes of timespent and timeestimate, which is what I am interested in.

I need to track how Remaining Time evolves over time and for that I need to track it via records in change logs. However for older issues there are NO change logs with this information returned, even though the value was changed. When I do exactly the same action with a new issue, I can see and fetch these change logs just fine.

GetChangeLogsAsync is using an API call

rest/api/2/issue/{issuekey}?fields=created&expand=changelog

does that works on those issues where yoou can't find the log?

also, you can try to get the values rigtht from the DB:

SELECT p.pname, p.pkey, i.issuenum, cg.ID, cg.issueid, au.lower_user_name, cg.AUTHOR, cg.CREATED, ci.FIELDTYPE, ci.FIELD, ci.OLDVALUE, ci.OLDSTRING, ci.NEWVALUE, ci.NEWSTRING
FROM changegroup cg
inner join jiraissue i on cg.issueid = i.id
inner join project p on i.project = p.id
inner join changeitem ci on ci.groupid = cg.id
inner join app_user au on cg.author = au.user_key
WHERE cg.issueid=(select id from jiraissue where issuenum = 24 and project in (select id from project where pname = 'Peticiones')) 
order by 1,3,4;

I cannot access the DB, I work for a big corporation..

Anyway - I do not believe the API call you mentioned is used there because when I execute it in the browser, the data I am looking for are there. When I use this GetChangeLogsAsync function, they are missing, not returned it seems. Why the heck would be "older" records not returned? And what is "older"? It is quite frustrating, to be honest.

Doen't seems to make sense.

This is the method definition from

/Atlassian.Jira/Remote/IssueService.cs

       public async Task<IEnumerable<IssueChangeLog>> GetChangeLogsAsync(string issueKey, CancellationToken token = default(CancellationToken))
        {
            var resourceUrl = String.Format("rest/api/2/issue/{0}?fields=created&expand=changelog", issueKey);
            var serializerSettings = _jira.RestClient.Settings.JsonSerializerSettings;
            var response = await _jira.RestClient.ExecuteRequestAsync(Method.GET, resourceUrl, null, token).ConfigureAwait(false);
            var result = Enumerable.Empty<IssueChangeLog>();
            var changeLogs = response["changelog"];
            if (changeLogs != null)
            {
                var histories = changeLogs["histories"];
                if (histories != null)
                {
                    result = histories.Select(history => JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<IssueChangeLog>(history.ToString(), serializerSettings));
                }
            }

            return result;
        }

You see, I get ALL logs related to changes of STATUS, RESOLUTION etc. But when it comes to time tracking, I get only "recent" logs. For example, I am getting two logs I created today, but it does not return the one I created on Friday. All are the same - logging work.

EDIT: Funny thing, in the JSON I can see "timespent" and "timeestimate" data with correct values, but they are NOT shown in the resulting object in C#..
