How can I get a list of UserHistoryItem for a specific period of time. Currently our plugin needs that functionality for internal business usage and what we have determined so far is we can call for example: List issueHistoryItems = userHistoryManager.getHistory(UserHistoryItem.ISSUE, appUser); to obtain a list of UserHistoryItem(s) but we can't find out how to restrict the period of time those changes occurred.

nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

Get a list of UserHistoryItem for a specific period of time

User history does not contain data about the date it was created.

What do you exaclty want to achieve. Maybe there is a better approach which will allow you to filter by date.

Hi Boris,

I'd like to obtain user's activity for a specific timespan.

Any references to the API would be appreciated.

Many thanks

If by activity you mean any issue-related activity you can then use com.atlassian.jira.user.UserHistoryItem.getType() to filter out all items related to issues and the use com.atlassian.jira.user.UserHistoryItem.getEntityId() to collect all issue ids that were affected by a user action. Next use com.atlassian.jira.issue.changehistory.ChangeHistoryManager.getChangeHistoriesForUser(Iterable<Issue>, User) to get all com.atlassian.jira.issue.changehistory.ChangeHistory objects. The ChangeHistory has a getTimePerformed() method which you can use to apply filter by date/time period.

Thanks,

Have you got any idea why all the changeItems fields in the obtianed List<ChangeHistory> are null?

List&lt;UserHistoryItem&gt; issueHistoryItems = userHistoryManager.getHistory(UserHistoryItem.ISSUE, appUser);
        List&lt;Issue&gt; issuesUserActedOn = new ArrayList&lt;Issue&gt;();
        for(UserHistoryItem userHistoryItem : issueHistoryItems){
            Issue issueByString = issueManager.getIssueObject(userHistoryItem.getEntityId());
            Issue issueByLong = issueManager.getIssueObject(Long.parseLong(userHistoryItem.getEntityId()));
            issuesUserActedOn.add(issue);

        }

        List&lt;ChangeHistory&gt; changeHistories = changeHistoryManager.getChangeHistoriesForUser(issuesUserActedOn, ApplicationUsers.toDirectoryUser(appUser));

Output from the debugger:

[2] = {com.atlassian.jira.issue.changehistory.ChangeHistoryBatch$ChangeHistoryWithLazyLoadedChangeItems@27042}
this$0 = {com.atlassian.jira.issue.changehistory.ChangeHistoryBatch@26936}
changeHistory = {org.ofbiz.core.entity.GenericValue@27093} size = 4
[0] = {java.util.HashMap$Entry@27122}"id" -> "12871"
[1] = {java.util.HashMap$Entry@27124}"author" -> "svspkccjg"
[2] = {java.util.HashMap$Entry@27126}"created" -> "2013-11-19 13:36:07.0"
[3] = {java.util.HashMap$Entry@27128}"issue" -> "10274"
issueManager = {com.atlassian.jira.issue.managers.DefaultIssueManager@26937}
changeItems = null
user = null
userManager = {com.atlassian.jira.user.util.DefaultUserManager@26938}

... where you can see that changeItems = null;
