Hi,

if you want to export the history of Jira issue you could use the REST API.

Hi @Dorothy De Pina 

What type of activity would you like to get or export? 

[Dorothy De Pina]

I would like to export the History for Field Updated, Date of Change, Updated by and Status.

So, for your case, you can check out two options:

1) Activity Stream gadget (built-in on Jira dashboard). Here you can see:

+ Who updated the issue field

+ Date of change

+ Filter by status transitions

- No export

2) Issue History for Jira (add-on developed by my team). 

+ Who updated the issue field

+ Date of change

+ Filter by status transitions and any other filed you need

+ Export in two clicks

+ Add any field to the report

Hi @Dorothy De Pina 

There are few options to get this information.

1. Use Activity Stream gadget

2. Use Jira Rest API's and build your own custom solution

3. Explore mktplace apps for detailed and flexible reports

For #3, if you are open to try one, take a look at

Issue History Reports 

The app shows the complete history of changes for your filtered issues.

Hi @Dorothy De Pina ,

While the REST API allows you to get the history activity for issues, the returned format is JSON and would probably require extracting the essential data you need.

If you are open to using apps you can use Issue History Dashboard for Jira , an app released by our company.

You can search for either all issues by project or fiter by various criteria.

The result is presented in a tabular format, sortable and exportable to csv.

Regards, 

Petru.
