How to find all tickets with an updated description in a specific time window?

[Leanne Bloomfield]

Hey all, I need to identify all tickets within a project that have had their description updated in the past few months. Last Updated doesn't cut it because it captures all ticket updates. Is there way to do this with JQL?

Hi,

Unfortunately you can't do that, you will need an addon. Look at this thread there is a good workaround by Bill Sheboy

thanks for the reply, @Mohamed Benziane -- i will look into creating a custom field and automation rule going forward. unfortunately doesn't help me right now, but at least you've confirmed it can't be done. sure wish this was a built in feature as it's something i need to do frequently throughout a project.
