On Cloud, you'll want to export the data, then import it into a local JIRA hooked up to your database.

Sorry, I didn't link to the document you need - https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiracloud/exporting-issues-776636787.html

Use that to get the data, then recreate a JIRA system from it, and use the database it creates.

You do have another option - pull the data you want to report on over REST, but that is not going to "dump data in mysql" - the only simple way to do that is with the export.

thanks Nic, now am able to fetch data from JIRA rest api and need help on below requirement.

I need issues created and updated yesterday from 2016-07-28 00:00:00 to 2016-07-28 23:59:59. I tried different ways but getting entire issues irrespective of dates.
