Hi, I need to search for issues via their previous project. e.g. AAA-1 is moved to new project as BBB-10. I need to search for issues that is originally from AAA but is now moved in project BBB, I came accross: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.palm.jira.plugin.search.boolean/version/13 - Change History Searching, But could not install the plugin properly, reindex is failing. Is it possible to search using DB? I only need the issue keys. Thanks in Advance!

Search for issues that is now moved into a different project.

User with permissions still cannot assign issue

We have several users that cannot update the Assignee field. This has happened somewhat recently, and I do not know of any changes that have been made. The permission helper looks fine, but the user still receives "Assignee cannot be edited" when trying to assign issues. Below is one example of the permission helper screen:

I have also tried clearing cache, different browsers etc. and that did not help.

It seems that users that are explicitly defined in the People settings of the project, (company managed) have retained their rights, but not others.

You can call the issuekey using REST API and it will return results of the new issuekey if the issue has been moved. You might want to refer http://docs.atlassian.com/jira/REST/latest/#id90715

This feature using REST API is however, only available iin JIRA 5.0 and later as stated in https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-26806?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel

The JQL feature for this is not yet available but has an improvement request in https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-30074?page=com.atlassian.streams.streams-jira-plugin:activity-stream-issue-tab

Hope this helps.
