In Jira Service Management, can we generate a report of all past assignees for a ticket?

Dinonath Khan March 10, 2025

 

In Jira Service Management, the assignee field typically displays only the current user assigned to the ticket. However, my requirement is to generate a report that includes all past users who have worked on the ticket.

Is there a way to achieve this in Jira Service Management?

Hi @Dinonath Khan 

You can use the "History" tab in the issue screen to tracks the changes the issue went through including the assignee changes. You can also use Jira Rest Api's to pull this information and build your own custom solution.

However if you need detailed reporting to track history changes for multiple issues, you may want to have a look at a mktplace app for the same.

We have built an app to extract changelog data in a simple and easy to use interface.

Hi @Dinonath Khan 

You can check the ticket history:Assignee changes in jira.png

If you need additional filters (e.g., filter by assignee or other field only) or see changes for multiple tickets in one place, you can try Issue History for Jira developed by my team.

Hello  @Dinonath Khan 

In Jira Service Management, you can check the History tab of an issue to see past assignees, but Jira's Assignee field only displays the current user assigned to the ticket. If you need to generate a report that includes all past assignees and the time they spent on each issue, you can use Timepiece - Time in Status for Jira developed by my team at OBSS.

Assignee Duration Report in Timepiece

With the Assignee Duration Report, you can:


 See all past assignees for a ticket.
 Track how much time each assignee spent on the issue.
 Filter and export reports for deeper analysis.

Here’s an example of how the report looks:

This report provides a clear breakdown of assignee transitions and their time contributions, making it ideal for tracking workload distribution and accountability.

If you’d like to explore this solution further, feel free to check out Timepiece on the Atlassian Marketplace for a walkthrough of the app's features.

 

Hope it helps

Hi @Dinonath Khan , 

 

For a comprehensive and exportable report, if you are open to using apps, you can use Issue History Dashboard for Jira , an app released by our company.

Filter by Field Updated - Assignee.

You will be able to see all records where the assignee was changed.

If you are looking for a specific assignee, you can also filter by Value From and/or Value To to contain the name of the user.

Hi @Dinonath Khan 

If you do not mind using Jira vendor apps, eazyBI can analyze and visualize issue assignee changes. In the report, you can filter data by a specific project, assignee user group, period when the assignee was changed, and other issue fields.

eazyBI also receives data from Jira Service Management, and you can use the tool to build other reports. For example, to see met vs breached SLA and customer satisfaction. Feel free to visit the eazyBI Demo account, where you can probe the app and see some report templates: https://eazybi.com/accounts/1001/dashboards/8347-sla-overview.

Best,

Hi Dinonath,

 

You can see all changes that have been done on the Assignee field in the ticket in Tab: Activity.

Hope this helps.
