How can I display previous values of a custom field?

Question

Hi,

I'd like to display the previous values of a custom field.

For example, I have a "price" field where I enter a number and this changes often. I'd like to display the previous values of this field, perhaps in a separate field of its own.

Is there any way to achieve this?

I know I can look through the issue history at the bottom of the page, but there doesn't seem to be a way to filter this information.

Thank you!

Hi @Aaron TP

If you'd like to filter the issue history and customize your report, check out the Issue History app. Here you can filter by project, sprint, assignee, etc., and choose any date range.

Add any custom field to the grid columns to manipulate output data.

Check it out if you're ok with third-party solutions.

The add-on is developed by my team.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi,

You can try automation to get the old value and new value and put the old value in a customfield. But if the value change often i don't know if it will be useful.
