Is it possible to get the Start/End date of a release via JQL?

Question

Hey y'all,

Due to Next Gen Jira's reporting being extraordinary insufficient we've had to build our own reporting utilizing the API. One of the most important pieces of data is the Start and End date of a given release. Is there a way to get that data via JQL? I can't see a way which seems... crazy, but, hey, it's Jira.

Hi, unfortunately, you can't JQL version itself, only issues but you can use Get project version API to get these piece of information

What kind of release reports are you looking for?
