Kanban : I want to get the dates of an Userstory when it moved in to Ready lane and Done lane.

[Karthik Balasubramanian]

My project runs in Kanban. We have created a new work flow and related tasks for it. To measure the number of days a story is in live on our board, I wanted to capture the dates of a story when it moved in to "Ready" lane and "Done" lane. Need help here.

Hello @Karthik Balasubramanian

JIRA stores transition date information in the activity/history tab but it's not accessible out of box on the custom field. You can use the plugin "JIRA Misc custom fields" for this feature

From the docs here  - https://innovalog.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/JMCF/overview#JIRAMiscCustomFields-transitiondatefield

You can also do it using the Script Runner plugin if you already have it installed.
