How to Display History of Jira Item Statuses

I spent more time than I should have trying to find an answer for this and kept coming up empty. 

My team needs to be able to track the dates that a Jira item's statuses changed. Ideally this would be in a table where the Jira item is the row, each column is the different statuses of that item, and the cells would be the date that the Jira item changed to that status.Most importantly, I want them all to autopopulate. We're really trying to reduce the amount of administrative work and errors. Something like the below. 

 

My organization does not allow us to install apps.

Unfortunately this data is not easily captured out of the box. There are 2 primary options from my experience:

1. Create an automation rule and however many custom fields as you have statuses. When an issue transitions to each status, you populate the associated custom field with the current datetime stamp.
   1. Many teams also want to know time in status, so another custom field to capture how long an issue was in 'To Do' before it moved to open could be part of the same automation rule.
2. Many add-ons track time in status. The data you're looking for should be available from these add-ons.
