show a issue based on a specific history date

VINCENT DUPONT

Hello

Is there a way to show an issue's details in the exact same content as it was on a specific date?

I would like to show this in Confluence using the /jira macro

This could help us to compare changes between two specific dates. This should include all fields (native and custom)

Thank you
Vincent

Hi @VINCENT DUPONT ,

You can look at the history if each issue.

If you need data about multiple issues this could be a tedious task.

Alternativelly you can use Issue History Reporter for Jira an app built by our team .

Select Report Type: Issue Snapshot, and the Issue Snapshot Date: Select the date and time you are interested.

Issue Snapshot is providing exactly what you are looking for, the state of the issue at a specific point in time.

You can export your search result and derrive more data in Excel or any tool of your choice.

Petru

Hi,

This is not possible natively in the UI. You can use the API REST to achieve this. This endpoint provides the issue’s change history. You will need to store this information somewhere in order to reuse it when needed.

Hi @VINCENT DUPONT

You can use Jira Rest Api's to pull this information and build your own custom solution.

However if you need detailed reporting to track changes for multiple issues, you may want to have a look at a mktplace app for the same.

We have built an app to extract changelog data in a simple and easy to use interface. The data can be exported to a CSV file as well.

It provides complete details of who changed the data, what was changed and when.

Do give it a try.

Hi @VINCENT DUPONT

You might also find the built-in Activity Stream gadget useful, as it allows filtering by specific dates and issues.

For more flexibility, you can also try the app developed by my team — Issue History for Jira (Work Item History).
It lets you filter by date, select specific issues, and include all or selected issue fields in your reports.
