I need help for exporting a report from a roadmap

Question

Hello Atlassian Community,

I have a product discovery roadmap with different stages. If the target reaches the respective date we enter the date when it did it. I need to generate a report with the history of the dates - how they changed and who changed them. Is this achievable?

Hi there,

Thanks for the prompt answer!
The first option works just like a charm but I it is not exactly what I need. I will need to export a monthly or every three months a report with all the historical changes during that time. Exporting it to Confluence or in an excel will do.
Any suggestions further?

Thanks a lot!

Hi Bozhidar!

Good day to you! I'm Felipe from the ServiceRocket support team.

Regarding your question, unfortunately, Jira doesn’t have a built-in way to generate a historical report of date changes directly from the Product Discovery roadmap, but you can track these changes using the following methods:

Use Jira Automation to Track Date Changes

You can set up an automation rule to capture date changes in a custom field or a comment:

* Go to Project Settings → Automation → Create Rule.
* Trigger: "Field value changed" (select the date fields you want to track).
* Action: "Add a comment" or "Edit issue fields" (store the previous date value and who changed it).
* Save and enable the rule.

This ensures you have a structured log of all changes moving forward.

Extract Data with the Jira API

If you need a more detailed report, you can use the Jira REST API:

* The endpoint /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/changelog retrieves all changes, including dates and users who modified them.
* This requires some scripting knowledge but allows full visibility of historical data.

I hope this helps.

Best,
Felipe
