How to change resolution date for existing Jira issues?

[Jimmy Trivedi]

I didn't find that option.

Hello @Jimmy Trivedi,

Thank you for reaching out to Atlassian Community!

When it comes to updating the resolution date, there are no functions that would do that. 

There is a feature request suggesting to add this option on the “bulk edit” issues:

• Add the Option to Change the Resolution Date in Bulk Edit

However, you can try the workaround mentioned on the thread below by doing a CSV import:

• Is there a way to change the "Resolution Date" in Jira?

Hope this helps!

Kind regards,
Angélica

Thanks Angélica!

This is not possible. It will be the last time the resolution field is set.

Thanks Jack!

One thing I found (in Nov 2024) is that in System -> External System Import, I couldn't use the 'new experience' (as it doesn't seem to allow importing to an existing software project) - I had to choose 'Switch to the old experience'.
