How do I get who closed/resolved an issue from JIRA rest api?

Shaumik January 10, 2022

From GET `/rest/api/latest/issue/{issue id}` API it doesn't have any information as to who closed an issue. Is there a way to get who closed an issue in the rest api?

Hi @Shaumik 

If you add ?expand=changelog to that endpoint (eg: /rest/api/latest/issue/PRJ-123?expand=changelog ) you can then itterate through changelog.histories[].items[] and look for the field resolution being changed, and that stub has the author of the change
