How to get last modified comment or changelog for a given jira ISSUE via REST API

[Balaji Balaji]

Hi All,

I want to know how to get last modified comment or changelog information for given jira ISSUE via REST API. Currently When we get data via REST for an ISSUE we get all the comments exist and similarly if we expand REST API to get changelog(?expand=changelog) we all the changelog exists for the given ISSUE.

Please advice me how to do it. Thanks in advance.

Thanks,

So that mean iterating all the comments or changelog is the only option available. Wierd !!

I have the same need. Need to query comments after a particular date (and also on a custom field if possible). 

Were you able to get the answer?

You'll have to loop through the objects to get the latest. Can't remember if it is ordered but you can try getting the last array.
