We have a custom field called squad which is label type field, it has number of values. we would like to know exactly when those got created and who created it. is it possible?
Let say the squad field has values like product, purchase etc., we need to know who and when these values got created in JIRA.
If this is something you need on an ongoing way, you could get this information through the Rest API. If you use search and changelog. See here
It is possible, but I am sorry to tell you that it is not easy or quick.
There's no search for "field changed" for most fields, only a handful of system (not customer) fields can be searched. And that search is not for "field changed", it's for "field was". And, of course, searches report a list of issues back, not the detail of them.
So, the way you'll need to do this is completely manual, and a slow slog. Search for the issues that have the label and read the issue history for each one (You may have to do more work than that - if someone added a new label to an issue and then removed it, it won't be returned in the search I suggested)
If you find a record of the label in the history, it will be because someone added the label to the issue, and it will tell you who and when. If you do not find anything in the history, then look at the reporter of the issue and the created date - they created the label as part of creating the issue.
