How to update the changeLogs for an issue?

[Aman Todi]

I have fetched the changeLogs for an issue and want to change some text and update the same for the respective issue. How to achieve this ?

I’ll say don’t since this corrupts the whole data.

Your changelog states all changes made and should allow anyone auditing data to be able to tell what changed and when.

You can always update the issue or appropriate change to the value you want.

I need to add some other information in the changeLogs apart from the information it is displays. So it should still convey what changed and when. 
Any idea how to do this ?

Once again I cannot recommend this in anyway.

If however you still want to, you can find all changes in JIRA in the changegroup and changeitem tables of your database.

Before proceeding I recommend backing up your instance because you can potentially corrupt your database.

However, and as I mentioned earlier, I do not recommend this in anyway.
