Merge release version history?

Question

After I merge release versions within a project is there any way to see the tickets that I've merged from the old version to the new version?

When I do a search for updated tickets nothing shows up as those tickets that I merged into the different release version. Just trying to find a way to go back and look at the tickets that have been merged into the new release version if possible.

Since the versions were merged together and not simply removed from the ticket. Jira removes the versions from the system and the merged versions become unsearchable from JQL.

I think I have to use an option that allows me to quer
y against the database to see that historical data. Like Valentina studio.

Attached is what I get when I try to enter the old version that was merged in JQL.

Hi @Jeremy Price,

Have you tried running a filter query with something similar to the following syntax:

fixVersion was "Old Version" AND fixVersion in ("New Version")

You may want to tweak that a bit as that will returun everything that was in the old version and is now in the new version which may not have happened because of your merge but it should get you closer to what you want to do.

I hope that helps.

Do you know if there is a way to do this without an add on?
