Hello,

the dates and time shown in our tickets in Jira Service Desk are sometimes only relative dates. It would be helpful to get the exact date and time instead.

E.g. we got a ticket with created "yesterday". I really would like to know if it was actually created at maybe 8:30h or 17:15h!?

Is it possible to change that?

Hello,

If you are on Jira Server/Data Center kindly have a look at the following KB

I'm glad this question was asked. I have been meaning to research this as I really dislike relative dates. That said it appears that for Cloud there is no solution at this time? If anyone knows otherwise I welcome the insight.

Is there a solution for customers on Jira Cloud?

I am interested in too.
It seems strange that it does not exist, it is the basis of a support tool.

Very annoying... lots of people don't know about the hover trick, and more annoyingly the mobile (mostly) works fine. How do we disable relative dates on the Cloud version?

This issue doesn't address the ability to see timestamps in the jira service desk queues? does anyone know if a ticket exists for that?

This is the exact issue I'm having, need to see exact times in the queues without having to hover... any update?

Has anyone found a solution to changing the date/time to be absolute in the Queue view?

Apparently, at Atlassian, where they measure response times to support issues in months and years, minutes and hours are a rounding error.

Nice. The relative general dates have bugged us for a while, but never were something that I wanted to spend the time to research. Glad I stumbled on your answer -- I just wish this was in the UI instead of a properties file.
